Slippers
How can an "opinion" be refutable?
May I ask your credentials? Your location and robust defence of the IAA and / or the business practices of RYR instil in me a feeling of the lady dost protest too much.
As an aside, if the IAA is such a strong defender of standards in aviation, why is the Republic fast becoming the aviation equivalent of shipping's Panama when it comes to registration? Genuine question if we consider the case of multinational pilots operating from a Thai base on EI registered aircraft for a company based in Norway for example? Exactly how big are Norwegian's offices in Dublin and how many are employed there?
If you cut through the routine Pprune mud slinging, I'm genuinely interested as to how the above arrangement can be effectively regulated.
