Watch as Italian aerobatic display team treats Dublin to a very patriotic flypast

An Italian aerobatic display team had Dubliners craning their necks to the sky yesterday after performing a memorable flypast over the city.

Known as the Frecce Tricolori, the jet pilots come from a branch of the Italian air force and they perform at air shows all over the world.

The team were brought to Ireland as part the Bray Air Display show - which is taking place over the weekend in the town - and they took to the skies over Ireland’s capital to promote their appearance at the show.
