Hi Dickyharris,

Sorry for the delay is replying to your query. Hope you are still monitoring AiX. The aerial was taken in 1974 by Antoin Daltun. Oranmore airstrip was 9k E of of Eyre Square Galway city just N iof the rail line and 2.5k SE of Carnmore/Galway Airport.

If you're interested in old strips in Ireland then have a look at my website www.irishavsites.com Its far from complete but will give some data on most strips in Ireland. If you have more questions please contact me on my website because as you already noticed I don't visit AiX very often now as I'm up to my neck with Irishavsites and sadly that does not allow me much time to check out other websites.

Regards,
Hugo
