The fifth Foynes Air Show brought thousands of spectators to the west Limerick village this Saturday to witness awe-inspiring and daredevil acts by 23 of the worlds most iconic and celebrated aircraft. One of the largest annual events along the Wild Atlantic Way, the Foynes Air Show is estimated to be worth more than €750,000 to the local economy, and forms part of the IAA’s #AviationIreland weekend, along with the Bray Air Display in Co. Wicklow. The sun came out just in time for this year’s show as the supersonic attack aircraft the Saab Viggen also know as Thunderbolt opened the air show when it shot across the sky to the delight to the crowd below.
