Wiser heads than me have justified (and I have accepted the reasoning) the use of fast jets from the RAF to intercept the first Olympic A340 the other day - it was landing in the UK. So, in this second case, with a landing in Ireland, do we assume that as Ireland doesn't have any fast jet assets, this aircraft was just not escorted/intercepted at all ... (eg. by the British or French...) ?
