G-ARZG: RYR taxy speeds are very reasonable, ever since the 800 was introduced. That is one of the effects of the OFDM programme. Granted, the 200s were taxied pretty swiftly (often very fast), but rarely the 800s.

It's amazing that the Mail journalist, despite seeming considering himself a well informed expert, cant tell the difference between a runway and a minor taxiway in a cul-de-sac. As for the claim of an evacuation, I haven't heard that elsewhere, unless every orderly disembarkation is now considered an evacuation. That rag really should be shut down for continuous libel - they are incapable of printing a single factual story.
