Ryanair's standard report time for crews is 45 minutes before departure. Allowing for at least 5 minutes to log in to computer, read compulsory notices, print weather and flight plans etc, plus a 5 minute walk to the aircraft to be there at the latest, 20 mins before departure, in theory leaves 15 minutes flight planning time. For a four sector day that's less than 4 mins per sector !!!
Surely nothing to do with it ?........
PS
When reported, the IAA told me that there was no evidence / complaints from Ryanair pilots saying this wasn't long enough !
