Colin sent a message to Michael O’Leary – CEO, Ryanair – Email Address that said:
I am out in the Algarve , this time last week , I was watching a flight climb out of Faro banking to the right , from what I have been able to find out , it was the Ryanair 20:15 Faro to Oporto flight , I watched it turning climbing into the night sky and all of a sudden an intense yellow fireball flew over my head , only a few hundred feet above , this was heading straight for your plane as far as I am able to say , it went under your plane . My question is did any of your passengers on the right hand side of the plane report seeing it or any of your pilots . I have spoken to my cousin in Ireland how is a pilot for another airline who said it may have been Ball Lightning , but I am sure it was a fireball , looking forward to a response that has had me contacting an observatory in Northern Ireland , yours sincerely
Mr Colin .
