Cork Airport notes today’s publication of the Irish Air Accident Investigation Unit’s (AAIU) final report into the Manx2 incident in February 2011.

“This is another difficult day for the families and friends of the six men who lost their lives in the accident, and our thoughts are with them and those who were injured,” said Cork Airport Managing Director, Niall MacCarthy.

Mr McCarthy added that he wished “to commend the emergency services for their response to the incident, and in particular the members of the Airport Fire Service who were first on the scene”.
The final AAIU report contained no recommendations in relation to the operation of Cork Airport.
