Re: Night Flight around Boyle
Pure speculation - they appear to be calibrating the ILS at EIKN at the minute, the callsign Calibrator One has been on the Shannon frequency for a few days now. Could possibly explain the activity into EIKN (approaches etc).

Re: irish atc on strike
Like most computer software upgrades, this will allow a controller to perform more tasks in a shorter time. If thats the case why was Dublin's flow rate per hour reduced by Eurcontrol?
