Nice shots. I think I have one of EI-CUT taken at the end of the Enniskillen Airshow in 07.

Indeed great shots. PSNI has been hovering around my side of Belfast for a few nights last week  :-\

EI-CUT is a funky looking plane, something different from the Cessna's. Any idea what aircraft it is? Also awesome to see the Dassault Falcon at Enniskillen. Is it there much?

EI-CUT is a Maule.The only other Maule i know of is the Maule M-7 'Super Rocket' (G-TAFC) which is based at EGAB.

G-KWIN is also based at EGAB and has its own hangar beside Sloane Helicopters.It doesn't fly as much as it used to but i suppose that's linked to the economic recession.It's great to see on take off when it climbs out over my house :D :D
