Planes, Shannon Airport, Co. Galway

  • 8 older comments, and then…
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    This is one of my favourite airplanes! I cycled out to Shannon or even Rineanna especially to see them way back in the 1950's!

    Is Shannon Airport not in Co. Clare?
  • derangedlemur said:
    Sharon Corbet The NLI has a proud history of treating all counties on the western seabord (in fact, more or less anywhere outside the Pale) pretty much interchangeably.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    derangedlemur Sharon Corbet As a Limerick native who has heard my fellow citizens claim Shannon on more than one occasion only to be shot down in flames by irate Clare men and women I was waiting for that! Shannon is of course in Co. Clare. The plane is a Super Constellation and I always considered it the most beautiful and elegant of the airliners!

    Not an Electra. Looks like a Constellation.

    Lockheed C-69 Constellation.
    Correction (9-Aug-2024) - See comment by f104_zipper below. USAAF Serial No. 43-10311, c/n 049-1963. As per the Joe Baugher site, subsequently re-registered as N67952. Repurchased by Lockheed and [sold] to Capital Airlines, Sep 9, 1950, as 'Capitaliner Freedom'. Sold to Modern Air Transport Sep 25, 1961.
  • f104_zipper said:
    I believe this is actually C-69 43-10311, Lockheed serial number 1963. After USAAC/USAF service, went to Capital Airlines and was broken up in 1965.

    Soon after leaving LGA in June 1946 N88858 lost its burning #4 engine and belly-landed at Willimantic CT. On 30 July it returned to BUR with three engines (MTOW 73000 lb).
