Margaret O'Shaughnessy returned to Foynes County Limerick after she was married and left her job working in banking. She was in search of a project. After she successfully helped to build the local sports complex, a museum seemed like the logical next step! This extraordinary woman and her remarkable journey towards creating a one of a kind aviation museum is the subject of the final episode in season 1 of the Flying Irishman. Margaret O'Shaugnessy has more than a few stories to tell about this very unusual adventure and our host, Jarlath Regan gives her the time and space to tell them. (Note: This episode was recorded over a landline during the worst days of the pandemic.)
