It always amazes me when you speak about RYR's corporate culture, I have a feeling you are just guessing.

I occasionaly work as TWR controller at an aerodrome where they are the biggest operator. And I'm yet to see an airline where crews are as rigid about SOPS, rules etc as RYR's. Tailwind component too big by just 1kt - they will take the runway that results in 10mins delay. Runway change - they will sit for 8 mins at the h/p for rebriefing, while the other operator would just press a button in the FMC for the new SID and off they go. If they are unhappy with sth, they will stop and you won't make them move until the issue is resolved. The list could go on and on. In fact never seen them in a hurry that would affect their procedures.
