For the first time, Royal Air Force wings have been presented to four members of the Irish Air Corps who have passed their training at RAF Shawbury.

Graduates were presented with their wings after graduating from the Number One Flying Training School which welcomed pilots back in 2022.

"It's great to have the relief and the pride of getting through the course, and it's a great way to wrap it up at the end of the day," said Lieutenant Shane O'Connell who graduated with his girlfriend watching.
