Description

An Aer Lingus Boeing 707 has landed at Shannon airport. Is that Charlie Witherspoon coming down the steps?! It is. He’s just arrived in Shannon to do a piece for UTV. 

There’s great footage here of the inside of the cockpit and the plane, and all the preparations needed to get the plane airborne. 

Shannon Airport was the first airport in Europe with an established duty-free zone. 

Credits

An Ulster Television Production.
