Shannon Airport has recorded another first after rolling out eduroam – the secure global wifi roaming service for the international research and education community.
A cup of liquid accidentally spilt onto electronic equipment in the cockpit of a holiday jet caused the smoke that forced the flight to make an emergency landing at Shannon Airport yesterday.
Five people were taken to hospital after a holiday jet was forced to turn around over the Atlantic and divert to Shannon Airport this evening after the crew reported smoke in the cockpit.
Shannon has been at the heart of international aviation for over seventy years and is now home to the largest aerospace and aviation cluster in Ireland but its future could include the development of a centre of excellence for aircraft reconfiguration, capitalising on its reputation for quality and speed in maintenance repair overhaul (MRO) sector.
