Help us to expose the scandal.

I am organising a protest march to EIAB airfield for next Wednesday (April 9th) to publicise the use of this airfield by foreign military aircraft.
Local support is small, because of short-term economic concerns, so any support would be greatly appreciated. I also hope to gain press coverage, maybe some of the more experienced activists could advise me on this?

Thanks,

Sean Walsh

Lo..the paranoid postman doth post.

Methinks total tosh and too much whiskey.

When will you clowns give up and admit that
nothing flies at Abbeyshrule beyond light
planes and the occasional helicopter?

As a well known figure in Irish aviation, with alot of knowledge in these issues, I can tell you, notin could fit into Abbeyshrule aerodrome, - seriosuly look at the runway lenght 799m! - it takes atleast 1,750m to land even the smallest of military aircraft. I believe sir, your sources are misinformed, and you are only brining trouble apon yourself by carrying out such activities...
