Captain Numpty:
I find it quite amazing that a pilot rated on a 777 was unable to explain to his wife that the speed at which aircraft fly the approach to runway 28 at Dublin past Howth is in fact regulated by Dublin ATC and not by Ryanair.
I have lost count of the number of times that I have been sent down to 2000 ft and asked by Dublin ATC to maintain high speed as long as possible on this approach. It is not a problem. They are in charge of the spacing and as long as it is safe, I am happy to oblige.
I have said this before but I'm going to say it again. Can you or your wife put your hands on your hearts and swear that you have never exceeded 30 mph when driving in a 30 mph speed limit? As far as I am aware, Ryanair have never injured or killed a single person whilst taxying. On the other hand, people just like you and me kill hundreds of pedestrians every year. Do I detect a whiff of hypocrisy?
In my company we do a comprehensive walkround before the first flight. On subsequent quick turnarounds the manufacturers and the company deem it sufficient to look at the engines, brakes, wheels and tyres and check for obvious leaks and airframe damage.
Finally, I am surprised that you, as a 777 driver would even consider taking your dearly beloved on honeymoon by Ryanair. Don't you get paid? In any event you certainly know how to show a young lady a good time!
