    Hi all i went to Shannon International for a bit of spotting on Saturday, As you can see the clag was well over EINN for most of the day and i must say was nice to see Aircraft just coming right through the fog just meters from the Runway, Nice sight indeed, The only ones that stood out for me were the Air France Cargo 747 and the US Government C40 also known as a 737 in Civvy Land. Im not sure if it is a C40B or a C40C as The C-40B's primary customers are the combatant commanders and C-40C customers include members of the Cabinet and Congress. Anyway Enjoy!

    Just how bad it was!!!!

    ended up getting diverted to Shannon on the same night, cos of bad fog in Dublin. Pilot got on the intercom to tell us we're running low on fuel and can't land in Dublin so heading to Shannon to refuel and then come back up

    Made for a few giggles watching the nervous fliers in the cabin!!!
