    I think it might have been a Boeing 747 SP (The shorter version of the B 747)
    One of those passed over Limerick around that time going East. It was in the livery of Saudia Airlines. I don't think any of those aircraft are in regular commercial service any more and it might have been one of the wealthy Arabs private jet. I do a little plane-spotting and this one caught my attention in the (rare) clear blue skies over Limerick.
