Galway Air Show 2007
At the end of the show the Merlin HC MK3's door fell off and landed on the beach in Salthill moments after take off.

I recorded this footage on my Sony MiniDV camera.
TV3 used my footage in their news program the next day (Monday 25th) at 17.30 and 22.50.

  • @nathanshox well yeah you cant really blame the army since it was an RAF helicopter, but nevertheless it was a very foolish mistake the doors on the Merlin weigh very heavy and easily could have killed someone.
