Hi all
I see there's a Cessna in the display.Hm.OK, that'll take about 20 minutes to pass by, which will give you time to nip back to the kiosk for a sangwidge and get back to your viewing point.I wonder could they arrange for it to drone by at about lunchtime?.....NNNNNWWWWOOOOOWWWWOOOOOWWWWWOOOOOOWWWWW!!!!!!...Jeez, the excitement!

I might be totally nuts here, but I have just seen what looks like an AB139 in green with a small tricolour over the side door flying over Galway, I am not joking either.

I was listening to today's Last Word on Today FM and new Mayor of Galway spoke very loudly against "glorifying of war and war propaganda" in relation to Salthill Air Show.
So one just wonder if this could mean the end of an era of flying over Galway? I hope not, but ...
