    Yep, Chinooks landing in Phoenix park again, 1 Chinook and 2 Blackhawks (I think) flying southside again. Same routes as the flyovers last week, must have been a dry run at that point.

    It looks a bit weird in the photos/video with the paint scheme against the gloomy grey sky. The top half of the plane being a bit invisible.

    there is a live video feed from cbs here, it showed the helis taking off at Dublin and landing in the park. I assume they will show them taking off and heading for Moneygall. It is currently showing footage from the space shuttle.

    Not a wise move heading for Offaly in a helicopter if the weather keeps up like it has been. Very heavy rain and very high wind speeds. Was having enough trouble with cross-winds driving!

    If it flies in a straight line from the park to Moneygall, you might be slightly too far south in Naas.

    But not much.

    Is the TV coverage in real time or time delayed? (Leave out the minor time delay due to transmission)
