Photo Comment

Photographer unknown. An undated image of this Aer Lingus Viscount preparing to depart from Shannon. I estimate it to have been taken circa 1960-1. Note the group of press photographers at bottom left, presumably focusing on a notable passenger of the time. Construction of the taxiway from the apron to the recently-built runway 24 is still underway.
