The Foynes Air Show started in 2014 with the Foynes Flying Boat & Maritime Museum’s 75th anniversary of the first transatlantic commercial passenger flight that took place to Foynes. The Air Show has now become an annual event, and the 2017 date has been set for Sunday, 22nd July.  One of the main supporters of the Foynes Air Show is the Irish Aviation Authority (IAA) as part of its “#AviationIreland” campaign to promote aviation across the State. The Irish Historic Flight is delighted to take part in this airshow with our three DHC-1 Chipmunk Aircraft painted in Irish Air Corps colours.
