Hi, A small bright red aircraft flew over Mullingar approx 30 minutes ago. It was flying in a Northwesterly direction. It appeared to be flying quite quickly and the engine made a shrill high pitched noise quite unlike any of the other small aircraft that I have seen flying around Abbeyshrule etc. Any idea what type/model…

Any idea what type/model of aircraft it may have been ?

Saw that fly over here on the way and way back from Bray on Sunday. Pretty unique engine sound!

Thanks for that. It certainly looks and sounds very distinctive.
Can reach good speed too judging by the way it flew over here today.
