I had a great time but am starting to feel the effects now, the sunburn is going to hurt tomorrow :P
Still can't get used to the relaxed atmosphere at Baldonnel compared to Aldergrove. The Air Corps mechanics were great showing us around. Would definitely have liked a look inside the G-IV.
Casper, don't forget to post the group photo :) and you'll be glad to know that we did see an A330, eventually ;D
Don, did you notice there was another aborted landing as we were leaving?
Couldn't see who it was.
Haven't gone through all the photos yet but the ones from Baldonnel came out okay. I'll post some later on.

Had a brilliant time. Once again many thanks to Hammerhead for organising the day and being our guide around Dublin - well above and beyond the call of duty. Also nice to put the faces to names on the forum :)
Haven't sorted all my photos but here's the group shot as requested.

Thought I'd split this into a new thread - didn't want it getting to long :)

Thanks for the welcome Don!
Had a great day today, thanks again.
Was good to meet a few of you today!
Now one thing I have to do is get a better camera.

I think that wind shear was effecting a few of them yesterday.
