credit to the pilots !
The speed that first one jumps into the air again is incredible !

Good to see the overpaid fixed wing pilots earning their salary

You survive the landing then over the tannoy an irritating bugle jingle and thank you for flying ryanair.

Saw this on Beeb weather site the other day, awesome.
As Tut says, reckon the pilots were definitely earning their money that day.
Believe the mountain range responsible is the Picos di Europa. Well worth a vist. By car though. Not plane

Is the first one not a departure? I thought it was just a bit of wind sheer. It does seem to get airborne in a bit of a rush.

A good landing and you can walk away
A great landing and they can use the plane again.

Don't think I would have enjoyed being on board any of them!
