    Lisbon campaign takes to the sky

    An aircraft is currently flying over Dublin encouraging attendees of the Dublin v Louth game in Croke Park to Vote Yes.

    "DON'T SCORE AN OWN GOAL - VOTE YES"

    An aircraft is expected shortly ( ) over Dublin encouraging the same attendees to Vote No.

    "KEEP BRUSSELS OFF THE PITCH - VOTE NO".

    Is this the first campaign where either side have taken to the sky to do battle?

    If an own goal is scored in the match, might it not tick people off?
    Dan Sullivan. I was back but we still couldn't all have a vote.

    I believe the Red Baron is to come out for a Yes vote shortly.

    I wouldn't want to be standing outside Pairc Ui Chaoimh asking for a Yes vote.
    The next time you see Rebelman, Corkman 2007 or The Red Rose of Cork they may be sporting a black eye! :P

    Perhaps the two planes will fire at each other - I presume the Libertas plane is one of Ulick's refueling planes for B-52s?

    At what altitude was this plane flying? There's a minimum required altitude for over-flying an urban area. In fact, some civilian aircraft are not permitted to over-fly urban areas except for the air lane to an airport.

    Re: Lisbon campaign takes to the sky

    Do you know the exact height and the exact categorizations of civilian aircraft permitted?
