O' Leary does it again, free publicity

Postby expat » Mon Jul 06, 2009 10:51 am

Ryanair boss Michael O'Leary does it again, more free publicity because the press don't know any better ::). He makes any marketing company look like total amatures, he may be full of more BS than a cattle ranch but he is the total master of free publicity.

If you stand up you can fly for free

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Isn't that...

You know...

A tad dangerous...?

"Ok everyone... Pile against the back wall and hold on. We're taking off!"

Turbulence, Landings, Take-Off, Climbing, Descending, Even turns could all injure the passengers if they're standing up during even those simple maneuvers.

My fiance stopped riding the rail after this shot was taken.

Too much publicity . . . you understand . . . ;)

(In all frankness: this really does resemble my fiance's rear . . . :o)

So You are Michael O'leary and are pondering your next adverticement run, but are tighter than a ducks rear in winter and do not want to pay for it. What ideas can you come up with?
