At least seventy-five-thousand people were in Baldonnel, County Dublin, this afternoon for the largest outdoor event this year - the 1989 Aer Rianta Air Spectacular. The stars of the show were the French air display team whose jets hit speeds of over six-hundred-and-fifty miles per hour with just six feet between their wings at times.
