Danger Ryanair Taxi Tactics

On Thursday night at STN a Ryanair 737-800 being taxied by a female Pilot, continued to taxi at the Increased Ryanair taxi speed between 2 Airbus A300's despite being told by tower to give way to the Channel Express Aircraft, which in fact was the second aircraft to leave the Alpha's. When tower informed them of what they had done, the reply was "Sorry i thought you meant the other one" . The other one in question was an A300 TNT half orange aircraft, not exactly hard to miss unless you are incompetent, or just going to damn fast to stop.

When are Ryanair going to realise that stupidity is not a qualification. But then maybe I have just answered that!

I doubt they would have stopped in time, what do you think may of happened.

Comments from Ryanair pilots appreciated on this matter of safety, providing you can string a few words of ENGLISH together.

Sorry Mindthegap, this rules you out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
