    I'd say it is a delivery to/from the mint.

    That might make sense, two looked military and pretty sure third was the Garda copter.

    This comes up a few times a year. Its a delivery of blank currency paper to the mint, potentially worth billions to counterfeiters if it was liberated. No messing around with that one.

    Spotted 3 x Heli's too, They spent 10-15mins circling Ballymun/Glasnevin (1 Low, 1 Mid, 1 High Altitude) then moved west. I was driving Ballymun to Leopardstown on M50 and could see them all the way around and saw them in the same formation over Dundrum. I'm sure the tax payers money was well justified though

    What would you be saying if the billions in blank paper had been hijacked somewhere between the airport and the mint? itd be laughing stock city. Daft sarky comment.

    So what you are saying is that you saw them come from the Airport to the Mint, but decided to add a stupid comment.
