Ryanair Procedures
Hi everyone,
Just a question for any FR pilots who may be browsing the forum, or indeed anyone else in the know.
Do Ryanair make use of the de-rated engine thrust on the FMC for take offs on long runways? Is there any set procedure?
Similarly do they ever make use of a lower flap/lower auto brake landing. For example flaps 30 auto brake 2. I imagine for this question they will as surely it would save heating the brakes up for a quick turn around.
Finally (this one is just out of curiosity) if a UK pilot is trained up and is posted abroad, how easy is it for him/her to transfer back to the UK, at their local airport? I imagine the establishment of pilots at such places as EMA, BHX, LBA etc would be quite low. Is there a long waiting list?
Thank you

The PF, with the agreement of the Commander shall decide on the Landing Flap, Autobrake and Reverse Thrust settings having consulted the QRH, PI section. When a plog note or Airfield Brief specifies a particular landing configuration and/or technique these configurations/settings shall be used.
A minimum of Idle Reverse Thrust shall be used for all landings along with Autobrake 0- 1-2-3-Max as appropriate. Where the use of higher Autobrake brake settings causes turnaround brake cooling issues, Reverse Thrust settings greater than idle shall be used.
