line up canx due aircraft at 13 miles 300knts !!! Ex military driver remembering the run in and break, going to guns, TFLW radar on, hard ride set....

Not having flown with Ryanair, no real comment, but was passed by one B737 on the approach to LTN, we were 180knts and he passed us like a bat out of hell, boards out, aiming to be nbr 1 ahead of us and the other 2 aircraft. He called visual at 10 miles , asked if any traffic on finals, reply was negative, called up turning finals now, switching to tower,............. now thats worthy of a comment or two...
