On Sunday May 24, the skies over Fermanagh will be taken over with the unique sight of 10 Seaplanes from all over Europe.

The Amphibious Flying Club is hosting the Fermanagh Seaplane Festival at the Share Holiday Village in Fermanagh where a selection of Cessna, Maules and J3cub aircraft shall wow visitors.

The Fermanagh and the Lough Erne water system is 300 sq miles and has a famous seaplane heritage where Catalinas and Sunderlands were based during World War II. The water system was also described by a Canadian pilot as being “One of the most beautiful runways in the world.”
