    Did anyone see the six helicopters flying over Dublin this afternoon. they were flying in a triangular formation. I think they were Air Corps Alouette helicopters.
    Anyway I took a pic with my phone, albeit a crap image

    They flew over my house twice in 5 minutes yesterday. Nearly scared the bejesus out of me.

    I saw them myself too. Unusual to see that sight here. Always nice to see formation flying though.
