Sunday August 9th - The Emerald Isle

[ianfisher 101]

This week we are off on a site seeing visit to the Island of Ireland.

Ireland is located in the north-west of Europe, between latitudes 51° and 56° N, and longitudes 11° and 5° W. It is separated from Great Britain by the Irish Sea and the North Channel, which has a width of 23 kilometres at its narrowest point. To the west is the northern Atlantic Ocean and to the south is the Celtic Sea, which lies between Ireland and Brittany, in France. Ireland has a total area of 84,421 km2 of which the Republic of Ireland occupies 83 percent. Ireland and Great Britain, together with many nearby smaller islands, are known collectively as the British Isles. As the term British Isles is controversial in relation to Ireland, the alternate term Britain and Ireland is often used as a neutral term for the islands.

A ring of coastal mountains surround low plains at the centre of the island. The highest of these is Carrauntoohil in County Kerry, which rises to 1,038 m above sea level. The most arable land lies in the province of Leinster. Western areas can be mountainous and rocky with green panoramic vistas. River Shannon, the island's longest river at 386 km long, rises in County Cavan in the north west and flows through Limerick in the mid west.

We start our flight in the North West town of Donegal, then flying South taking in Sligo, Shannon, Kerry and Cork among others before heading North East to land at our final stop, the Capital Dublin. It's 360miles and should take around 2 hrs and 16 mins. Aircraft type will be the A2A Bonanza.
