Sly one by the Liveline team, so that we can't say the whole show was about Ryanair.

I think thieves are admitted if they repent and leave the loot.

I know Budapest. People are actually great if you get talking to them, and especially if you get chatting about their dogs! I got chatting to many folk in Budapest and learned the way to their heart. They hate pushy type tourists, and quite snobbish I suppose. I ended up carrying somebody's dog for a while as we chatted.

Don't get me wrong they weren't all like that.
I thought it was a beautiful place and the food was amazing.
I went to a place three times for beef goulash and dumplings despite the waitress being a grumpy wagon who would literally throw cutlery at you lol

OK. You now have my undivided attention.

What's the reason, in laypersons language? Genuinely curious.

It is a standard practice by Ryanair to make "positive landings", and they achieve this almost uniformly which speaks extremely well for the pilot monitoring policy of the airline. Positive landings have distinct advantages of having immediate directional control upon touchdown, especially if any crosswind is involved, mitigates against the possibility of a shimmying related accident whereby an airplane such as 737 can come off runway through an overly smooth landing, and shortens landing run. The shorter the runway the harder the landing will be, but Ryanair always aim for a standardised positive landing and if you read through incident reports Ryanair are involved in an extraordinarily low rate of landing related issues. The big (non bouncing!) bump is your friend. The 737-800 is well suited to this type of landing.

Good to know, thanks. I always thought it was a 'Feck You' from the pilots to M'OL.

Everyday is a schoolday they say.

Everybody thinks that. If I find myself sitting beside a chatty "victim" I explain it ahead of anticipated landing, more especially where I know the runway is short. In such circumstances I give a running commentary as to when to expect a kick of turbulence in a moment, de plane always obeys such anticipation on a sunny day as it flies over a patch of forest ahead of de runway, eg Sofia. Acts just the same as a glider does, where you use that same forest to get a lift.

There used to be story about when Aer Lingus started their trans Atlantic service. On the very first flight Pat and Mick were the pilots. Pat was at the controls for the landing in New York. He touched down and immediately there was an almighty screech of brakes and smell of burning rubber. They came to a shuddering halt about 6 inches from the end of the runway.
Pat mopped his brow and said “Jaysus Mick, but that’s the shortest runway I’ve ever landed on”. Mick was looking out the side window and replied “It may be the shortest, Pat but you should see the f**king width of it”.:D

Mr. Duffy must have known he was otherwise engaged and unable to come on then such was his bravado so to speak.

Perfect example of a positive landing dramatically shortening the landing roll of a presumably unladen TU-154.

I was there a couple of years before that, killing time in Munich station main hall. I was sitting reading an SF novel that happened to have suffered from the publisher's desire to plaster some Norse God-like figure on the cover to sell to a wider fantasy audience, I suppose.
A auld burd sitting next to me spotted the cover and assumed the book was some kind of Aryan race textbuke, and launched into a diatribe about the Turkish family sitting nearby.
Crazy auld Nazi, I think.
Bumped into several auld Nazis in Garmisch, too. They can't hide it too well.
They're all dead now, of course.
