The following memo was posted on Ryanair Pilot Notice Boards today;
To all pilots
Following a meeting between the IAA and Ryanair today (Friday 23rd August 2002), it was confirmed by both parties that neither Ryanair nor its pilots have breached current approved flight time limitations. Ryanair have agreed to build in further safeguards for new recruits, or pilots on long-term illness, to further ensure that current approved FTL's will be respected.
Ryanair and the IAA have agreed to review the current approved FTL's in order to clarify the working of the present scheme.
