Ryanair to Reduce Maintenance?

Strong rumour that Ryanair are about to cut out routine Engineering cover for their turnarounds at DUB and STN. The only check would be the pilot's walkaround. Anybody from FR like to comment? If...

Huggy,

I'm afraid you're not correct in saying only 900 hrs in 365 days. That does not happen even in UK's CAP 371. It's max 900 hrs in any 12 month period and if you read 371 you'll see it...

Ryanair and 900 hours a year

I thought this thread was to be about Ryanair's method of calculating 900 hours. Instead it has become a slagging match about their alleged lack of standards. Let's keep to the point. I, for one, am...

Any truth in the story that he got £200,000? Seems unlike Ryanair unless O'Leary didn't want some unsavory information to come out in the evidence. What's this about the IAA and 900 hrs?
