Aerfort Chorcai

“Corcaigh”. Ainm an aerfort ar barr an foirgneamh i Mí Nollaig 2004.

The old airport building was closed in 2006. I left from that building and returned to the new building. Oddly enough my photo archive shows I wasn’t away on the 15th August 2006 so they obviously didn’t start using the new building straight away.

Directions to Ballygarvan

Ballygarvan is 1 mile that way. Shot up by Cork Airport while trying to get a decent shot of a plane landing or taking off. I eventually moved to the other end of the air field where I got the shots I posted last week!

Ryanair’s bumpy landing

Will Ryanair face a bumpy landing this year?

Shots taken at Cork Airport of a Ryanair flight coming in to land. There are two small cottages just down the road from where I stood with children playing in the garden of one. I guess you get used to the engine whine after a while.
