Hello, girls and guys! A few years ago I was flying a flight from Tampere to London Heathrow with a Ryanair Boeing 737-800. After the usual strange policies with Ryanair, and the crews inability to really check what tickets the passenger is holding, my friends ended up boarding the wrong plane to Riga and I ended up in London alone! (Bet they were shocked when their plane closed doors and announced it was heading to Riga). But my question was, I was sitting as a passenger close to the aisle. A few people were drunk, as always, and unfortunately, a lot of children were aboard. But when we were in take off, our plane began to gain speed, but at rotation, we lifted once, only to slam the ground again quite hard after 3-4 seconds, then yet again, the plane made a second takeoff. The drunks raised a glass because of that. My question, is this normal policy or procedure? I don't travel with western airplanes a lot, but it hasn't happened on other flights and I know something was obviously wrong. Was this a stall or some sort or Ryanair operation? Why did the plane simply slam down to the ground again and initiated second take off? Also, during landing the touchdown was really hard, and it hurted my belly. Plane also was braking really hard and violently turned to the left to exit the runway. This was very unsual as well as I've flown with well over 100 flights. I know that the route Tampere-Stansted is flown by student pilots in learning once in a while with an instructor, so I forgive them in that case. But is the actions mentioned above normal?
