This is an overview of documented Ryanair incidents which could be blamed to the crew:
Most likely not complete. I cannot judge how this number of incidents relates to other airlines. Ryanair operates a lot of flights. However, statistics do not count, safety and peoples lives do.
Interesting is that:
-some incidents were not reported by the crew but discovered much later because of analyse of radar tracks.
-In at least one incident Ryanair press releases seems to downgrade the situation. Ryanair
PR reported in Memmingen 'Caution Terrain' did not alarm the crew while the official report mentioned 'Caution Terrain' did alarm!
