    Ah training that makes sense. God it's been annoying. I've been in bed sick all day and there has been a constant hum of helicopter/ aeroplane noise. There were some very low passes over my house by a plane today. A helicoptor passed by so low yesterday that I could actually clearly see the people in it. It was definitely Air Corp.

    God love ya, that was the AIRCORPS112 AW139 Helicopter, its on EAS Duty bringing people to UH Galway that need to get there in a hurry. Thankfully you did not warrant an Emergency Aeromedical Service (EAS) helicopter trip to Hospital..

    It wasn't a helicopter ALL day today.

    The level of sarcasm isn't exactly necessary, is it? I live along that route I hear it regularly, nobody at all resents that service.
    It's not allowed to say a constant engine noise all day is annoying?
