RNLI Open Day 23-05-09
« on: May 23, 2009, 09:49:38 PM »
Decided to go to the RNLI Open Day at the Lakeland Forum in Enniskillen. Read somewhere that the sea planes attending the Sea Plane Festival at the Share Centre would be attending. I nearly didn't make it as I had to visit the toilet quite alot this morning (if you catch my drift :) ). I felt better around 1pm so headed off and arrived around 2:30pm just as the sea planes were landing. Needless to say I thought it had been a wasted journey, how wrong I was - 5 helicopters landed - PSNI helicopter, Irish Coast Guard S-61N, a Bell 47 and two Robinson R44s, and the seaplanes took off around 4:30pm
