Ftlausa Posted May 13, 2018 Report Share Posted May 13, 2018 I am going to be visiting Ireland this summer for several weeks, and I would love to doing some flying while I am there. My online research has not been very fruitful in identifying rental options. Does anyone have some suggestions for options? Thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyboy0681 Posted May 14, 2018 Report Share Posted May 14, 2018 I'm in Ireland now and haven't seen a single GA aircraft flying. By contrast, I was in Amsterdam last week and saw no less than a dozen flying over the city over a three day period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zuutroy Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 (edited) GA is pretty small here. There are 2 Mooneys in the country! The Dublin area in particular has a huge area of controlled airspace so you won't see much around the city. Weston Airport a few KM west of Dublin is the main GA airport in the area. There's a company out there that will rent you a C150 or C172 www.nfc.ie but they have pretty strict currency and checkout rules, and it's something like €220 an hour for a 172. If you need any other pointers, let me know. Edited May 15, 2018 by zuutroy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
