That is the problem though and so clearly identifies what Cork has been up against - the decades of twisted, favouring patronage towards Shannon via the stopover etc by consecutive, shabby Fianna Fail governments, an equally shabby Aer Rianta and a Pontius Pilat attitude by a civil service dictating terms to an earlier Aer Lingus so enjoyed by Shannon has been nothing but a national shame, a farce, a stinking corrosion and has done nothing but to support Shannon & the midwest region whilst at the same time has done the absolute maximum damage elsewhere to aviation and to air transport policy in Ireland.
The notorious feuding gangs from the council estates of Limerick have not had to travel very far to take lessons in the black arts.
