May I just say, about 6 months ago I suggested that BA flyertalkers should have a look at the website set up by Ryanair staff indicating their worries about their training, the amount of hours they work and the lack of safety practises they found in their work place.
I knew about this because I have a friend that used to train BA crew and left on a big pay rise to work for Ryanair (after being head hunted by FR) she found the whole organisation and the crew they recruited so lacking she came back to BA
I hate to tell you... I told you so....
I apologise for grammar due to jet lag and 3 glasses of wine ... hic!
