Man dies in exhibition flight accident

A MAN was killed after his plane crashed in North Kerry yesterday shortly after completing an exhibition flight.

The married man, aged 57, was the sole occupant of the plane, which came down in a field between Ardfert and Causeway at about 4.30pm.

The dead man, from Co Clare, had just completed a number of aerial manoeuvres, entertaining crowds at the Ardfert Summerfest.
