Was it 2 helicopters they were travelling in FoxT ? I think they flew over us on the way there (I'm at the Knockmealdowns).

Funny you should ask.....

The air corps heli came first.....

Then the Royal heli....

I should have used a slower shutter speed....It all happened quite quickly.

These are super ! I didn't have the time to get camera, they would have been too far for me anyway.

Thanks!
I work in the airport business park, so decided to bring the camera this morning just in case. The choppers were only about 100m away, the Range Rover about 50. So I got lucky.

Fair play to Prince Philip & the Queen, it seems to me that whenever they saw any civilans nearby they went straight into 'wave mode'!

He appears to have done this sort of thing before....most notably in Dublin.
