On Thursday the 18th of November Harbour Flights Ireland Ltd will be continuing their series of trial flights and demonstrating to the planning and government authorities, along with the general public, the ease of operation of its intended commercial sea plane operation which, pending all approvals will come into operation early next year.
At 10.15 AM, the sea plane will land on the River Shannon in Limerick City and taxi up the river as far as the Clarion Hotel where Harbour Flights have lodged a planning application for a commercial sea plane operation from this location. After demonstrating its ease of manoeuvrability on the river the sea plane will then depart and continue its journey to Foynes which will approximately take eight minutes.
