Devil Flying to and around Ireland

For all you thousands of Helipilots operating in the Dublin-Ireland area: New Restricted Airspace, centered around the city in a box that extends from Blandcherstown (M50) Roundabout to East Link Bridge to Merrion Gates to Palmerstown (M50) Roundabout back to Blandcherstown Roundabout. from Sea Level to 1700'amsl. This is a No Fly zone effective from 01-01-04 to 30-06-04. Controlling agency is the Gardai at Garda GHQ, Pheonix Park...NOT the ATS chaps. This is due to the Irish EU presidency....who knows, they might think Icelandic forces armed with AH-R22's will invade and attack Leinster House!!
As usual, ATS are the last to know..( along with the pilots)!!
Night Rider....beware........be very aware!!!!
