Ryanair ? Bird Strike ? Oh yes, they had one of those in Ciampino once didn't they . . . . funny though that no report can be found on the website of the Italian accident investigators . . . however, I see in their inflight magazine they have an "unblemished safety record". . .so , I guess I just imagined it.
Ryanair bashing ? nope, assuredly not (I use them several times a month as a fare paying passenger) but, there are quite probably some safety lessons from the untraceable CIA accident that the rest of the aviation world could learn from.
