    Hope the mods wont mind me posting this here as it's pretty important!

    Please do not arrive to our shop in Rathcoole with any Airsoft device this week!
    We back on to Baldonnel Airport and the security geting into Greenogue Industrial estate is beyond belief.
    Spoke to a Garda this morning and he felt you really could get into bother if you're stopped.
    All cars are being searched and its taking about 40 minutes to get into the industrial estate.

    They say bad things come in 3's.Wonder what's next :(

    I should echo this. I work, literally, at the fence on opposite side of the aerodrome and it's only going to get worse. Even with security clearance and airline ID, we were being searched and diverted from normal entrances.
    We also have armed officers on the rooves of our buildings and patrols at the fence line.

    Not an area to be transporting AEG's and GBB's in and out of for a few days.

    Yeah, now that I think of it we might get to see a little bit more of Airforce 1 than we'd like to, if it tried to land at Baldonnel:D

    AF1 is landing in Shannon. He's taking a helicopter to Dublin from there, most likely to the US embassy, though it could be Baldonnel too.

    AF1 could land in Baldonnel, but it'd be tight for taking off. Shannon, however, is one of the largest runways in Europe. It's a designated alternate landing site for shuttle missions. It's also got more than enough US military personnel to secure the visit.

    Jesus lad,you just know too much!
    So he may arrive into Baldonnel? Have to press me suit again so.
    Wish the shuttle could land in Baldonnel, now that would be worth seeing

    As would the inevitable crash as it runs out of runway before the drogue even deploys...
