O'Leary tunrs up to Terminal 2 opening in a hearse, dressed in a funeral suit with a wreath signalling the death of Irish tourism.

Re post 886 - Strange joke. In my view carrying a wreath of poppies to make such a point is a bit irreverent to the symbolism of remembrance.
Colgratulations to those at T2. It's a great facility and most welcome.

Ah lads talk about a week i will never forget. From the worst crisis facing the nation since the civil war, to 7 tragic murders which included 4 children, to the opening of T2, the farce which is known as Ryanair at T2 today, and if that wasnt a bad enough - a new route to Iceland is announced great at is the timeing could never have been worse, the IMF might aswell ring RHM in London and tell them that the queens visit isint really wanted next year for all the right reasons. All that takin into account i look forward to using T2 and having greater value for money on Aer Lingus flights from Dublin.

Get use to eating bread and water, the country is well and truly sunk. Im just delighted that some intelligent people from Europe and the US will have a much greater say in how our country is run rather than the current shower - the whole lot of them as well, FF, FG, LB you name it who are only where they are cause their fathers and grandfathers occupied these seats. Give me some intelligent german any day. Its the only thing that can save us, we cant manage ourselves. Im afraid its back to the Quenn with the begging bowl - oh how we criticise and have such a selective memory about history when it suits us. HM will be writing a nice big cheque for us with only 5% interest. We really should applaud her.

A chap that conveys messages by painting aircraft is a poet and there are a growing band of O'Leary connoisseurs out there who can appreciate symbolism on different levels. If we look at O'Leary photos as an art form then on reflection and second reaction, the one vkid posted shows us his frustration at T2 but on another level conveys a message that reflects the overall mood and the subdued atmosphere of both an individual and a nation at this time. The mood, the emotions associated with the Irish flag, the symbolism of the funeral and the O'Leary element which reminds me of the WB Yeats 'Romantic Ireland is dead and gone' poem but also reminds me of the 'greasy till', the greed that got us all into this mess. Yes T2 could be called the 'Greasy Till', we can only imagine who is in the coffin, we can only remember how we had it so good and how mismanagement left us where we are, especially when those in successful business with realistic, achievable vision for the future asked for things to be done differently but weren't listened to. The poet has always been frustrated by bad leadership, bureaucratic wasteful departments, speed of progress and lets hope when the IMF etc are finished with us he can continue to keep the company here.

At least its something but odd that BFS would get a double weekly service and DUB only weekly, but at least the DUB is direct. I wonder if they can use the new PBT services for pax going to the USA?
At least its a new service and more to come i hope.

Those of you who want to turn PPRuNe threads into a political football are in for a shock. It is something we do not allow so find yourself a site that allows your verbals on the Irish politican scene. It is NOT going to happen here.
The thread is closed so it can sink in.
