Re: Context - I heard the DAA comments whilst driving and they were made at the end of the show. They related to an earlier piece they had which I didn't hear but which I have now listened back. Gerry Byrne aviation journalist was being interviewed by Derek Mooney and he passed a remark that if 'An A380 landed at Dublin Airport it would have to sit out on the runway and bus the passengers in and out.' The DAA comment came close to the end of the program. Judging by the warmth of the greeting, both RTE presenters seem to know the spokes person for DAA very well and the statement was read out. Like Gerry, I have my doubts that Dublin is A380 ready but it appears the DAA don't like someone having a dig.
