I tried to get work experience with them for 4th year and rang them about 8 months in advance but I was told the entire year was booked out- i was gutted.You have links though so hopefully you'll have more luck.

Sorry to hear that, i don't think i have much chance tbh but i'm going to try anyway:rolleyes:

Anyway on the topic of meteireann; are they really underfunded? I find it ridiculous that they still haven't fixed the shannon radar yet. Surely given the fact that a radar is extremely important (airports etc) they would have made it a priority by now?
What makes it even harder to understand (and even more embarassing)is that Ireland is supposed to be one of the wealthiest countries in Europe

I doubt it's going to be fixed any time soon, but i'd be happy to be proved wrong;). Does anyone know, is it very old? Maybe it might be better just to replace it. A wealthy eurpoean country like ours should b able to fund some new dopplers:p
