As you walk up the 800-year-old stone steps at HISTORIC LANDMARKS IHook Head Lighthouse in County Wexford; wander through the 17th century pleasure gardens at Loughcrew in County Meath; or stare up at a round tower built nearly 900 years ago by monks at Devenish Island in Lough Erne, County Fermanagh – it’s good to take some time to absorb the history embedded in these walls. Nothing captures the imagination quite like a good story, and on the island of Ireland, you don’t have to look far to find one. In towns and villages, on hillsides and cliff-edges – especially around Ireland’s Ancient East – you’ll find battlements, fortifications and historic mansions that fizz with tales of lavish parties, fascinating characters and even a ghost or two. Take the eerie 16th century Leap Castle in County Offaly, which claims to be the “world’s most haunted location”. Or Carrickfergus, a Norman stronghold in County Antrim, which has been besieged by the Scots, Irish, English and French over its 800 year history. And just because the island’s grand country houses look genteel, it doesn’t mean they don’t have their own tales of intrigue, like Westport House in County Mayo. Today, it may be the very picture of aristocratic elegance, but step down into the dungeons and you can see the remains of the castle that once belonged to the notorious 16th century pirate queen, Grace O’Malley. Ireland’s early Christian history is also packed with fascinating stories and beautiful settings. Dating from the mid-6th century, Clonmacnoise was established by St Ciarán on an idyllic site on the River Shannon – stroll around here and you’re catapulted back to an age of “saints and scholars”. At Gallarus Oratory on Slea Head in County Kerry, you can still experience what drew monks here hundreds of years ago – heart-stirring views of the brooding Three Sisters coastal peaks and the vast coastal bay of Smerwick Harbour. And on St Patrick’s Trail, which weaves through key sites linked to Ireland’s patron saint in counties Armagh and Down, beauty abounds, especially at tranquil Saul Church. It’s inevitable that a journey into Ireland’s past will lead to Ireland’s cities, whether it’s the Viking history of Dublin and Waterford or Titanic-era Belfast. And, whichever one you visit, a compelling piece of history awaits. Walk the 400-year-old walls in Derry~Londonderry, where cannons roared during the 17th century. Travel back to the Middle Ages with a stroll along Kilkenny’s Medieval Mile. Or imagine the life of a Norman soldier at the 13th century King John’s Castle in Limerick. On the island of Ireland, you can experience history like never before. • 4 DEVENISH ISLAND 5 COUNTY FERMANAGH Heritage PHOTO: GARETH MCCORMACK 1 2 3 CASTLES OF DREAMS 4 5 6 Ireland’s castles are set in some of the most beautiful DUNGUAIRE CASTLE COUNTY GALWAY parts of the island, from tranquil lakefronts to the edge of dramatic coastal cliffs.

  • Guidelines for the Release of Racing Pigeons for the Purpose of Ensuring Safety of Aircraft and Passengers and Crew Travelling Therein
    GUIDELINES FOR THE RELEASE OF Issued by the Safety Regulation Division of the RACING PIGEONS Irish Aviation Authority Introduction The Safety Regulation Division of the Irish Aviation Authority has issued the following guidelines for the release of racing pigeons for the purpose of ensuring safety of aircraft and passengers and crew travelling therein. The guidelines are available to all Racing Pigeon Clubs and all owners of racing pigeons. Why are racing pigeons a hazard for aircraft? Racing pigeons are a predictable hazard to both civil and military aviation. There are four main reasons why they are hazardous to aircraft: (1) Racing pigeons are heavy birds - weighing at least 450g i.e. almost half a kilo; (2) Racing pigeons fly in flocks, which, in the case of pigeon races may involve 30,000 birds. Flocks cause multiple bird strikes i.e. where several or many birds strike an aircraft. This in turn increases the risk of a bird or birds entering the jet engine. Most commercial jets (e.g. Boeing 737, 777, Airbus A320, A330) have two very large diameter engine intakes, so the risk of birds entering both engines increases when a flock strikes the aircraft; (3) Racing pigeons travel at speeds of up to 70 mph, which means that there may be insufficient time for pilots and or birds to take evasive action thus increasing the risk of collision; (4) Racing pigeons fly at low altitudes of the order of 300ft and therefore if a collision occurs it happens as the aircraft is at a critical phase of flight having either just taken off or when it is about to land; In addition, racing pigeons do not usually respond to conventional bird control measures at airports and as they are wild animals, their behavior is predictable only to a limited extent.

  • AAIU Report No.:2002/007 AAIU File No.: 2001/0072 Published: 12 July 2002
    Accident involving turbulence and Aer Arann ATR-42-300 on descent to Donegal International Airport, Ireland, on December 2, 2001. Micro-summary: On descent, this ATR-42 encountered turbulence, injuring several people. Event Date: 2001-12-02 at 1300 UTC Investigative Body: Air Accident Investigation Unit (AAIU), Ireland Investigative Body's Web Site: http://www.aaiu.ie/ Cautions: 1. Accident reports can be and sometimes are revised. Be sure to consult the investigative agency for the latest version before basing anything significant on content (e.g., thesis, research, etc). 2. Readers are advised that each report is a glimpse of events at specific points in time. While broad themes permeate the causal events leading up to crashes, and we can learn from those, the specific regulatory and technological environments can and do change. Your company's flight operations manual is the final authority as to the safe operation of your aircraft! 3. Reports may or may not represent reality. Many many non-scientific factors go into an investigation, including the magnitude of the event, the experience of the investigator, the political climate, relationship with the regulatory authority, technological and recovery capabilities, etc. It is recommended that the reader review all reports analytically. Even a "bad" report can be a very useful launching point for learning. 4. Contact us before reproducing or redistributing a report from this anthology.

  • Consultation on an Integrated Irish Aviation Policy Western
    Consultation on An Integrated Irish Aviation Policy To the Department of Transport, Sport and Tourism Submission from the Western Development Commission July 2013 Contact: Deirdre Frost Policy Analyst Western Development Commission Dillon House Ballaghaderreen Co. Roscommon Tel: 094 986 1441 Fax: 094 986 1443 Web: www.wdc.ie 1. Introduction The Western Development Commission (WDC) welcomes this opportunity to make a submission to the Issues Paper for Consultation on An Integrated Irish Aviation Policy issued by the Department of Transport, Tourism & Sport, February 2013. The WDC is a statutory body established by government to promote, foster and encourage economic and social development in the Western Region 1. It operates under the aegis of the DECLG 2. The WDC works in co-operation with national, regional and local bodies involved in western development to ensure that the Western Region maximises its full development potential. It does this by: • analysing economic and social trends and making policy recommendations; • promoting the Western Region through the LookWest.ie and RE:CONNECT campaigns; • supporting the rural economy through facilitating strategic initiatives (e.g. renewable energy, creative economy); and • providing risk capital to businesses through the WDC Investment Fund 3. One of the functions of the WDC is regional policy analysis. The WDC seeks to ensure that government policy reflects the needs and maximises the potential of the Western Region in such areas as infrastructure, natural resources, enterprise and regional and rural development. It also tracks the implementation of policies and recommends adjustments as appropriate. It is in this context that the WDC welcomes the publication of the Issues Paper for Consultation on An Integrated Irish Aviation Policy and the opportunity to submit its insights into the policy formulation process.
