Let’s face it. Ireland has a lot of grass. But who knew the entire Shannon runway was grass?
RuthannOC captured this head-on shot of a Ryanair Boeing 737-800 at Ireland’s second largest airport. Her timing gives a unique look at the thick vertical stabilizer and the landing lights that were just turned on prior to taking off. (Wouldn’t that make them ‘takeoff lights’?)
Oh, and of course I was just kidding about the grass runway. But it sure would make for smooth landings, wouldn’t it?
