Make sure nobody speculates as to what caused the accident.

Speculate away. There is one thread where speculation is at the moment (on instructions from higher up the food chain) not allowed at the moment, but that restriction does not apply to the rest of the board.

Shore, if it was easy, everybody would be doin it.😁

Have Ryanair put out the standard "the aircraft was under the control of Dublin ATC" press release yet?

Am 99% sure that's the one that rolled off its stand in CIA a few years ago and sustained damage to its vertical stabilizer. If so then it's had some bad luck in its time!

Hope the lamppost is OK! Between this and the A330 hitting the hanger a while ago it appears to be a dangerous place for large stationary inanimate objects out there these days.:D

A bit of panel beating and some speed tape and it'll be as good as new!:D

FYI, if you move to a 'smart' meter electricity plan, you CAN'T move back to a non-smart plan.
You don't have to take a 'smart' meter if you don't want one, opt-out is available.
Buy drinks in 3L or bigger plastic bottles or glass bottles or cartons to avoid the DRS fee.

We will need to buy extra rolls of paper for the acars ATIS printouts at this rate. "Pilots are reminded to avoid hitting poles".

Ridiculous that the ATIS still has this nonsense transmitted continuously. Give us the weather, not the obvious!!
