Episode 05 - Malcolm Nason
With a lifetime love of aviation, Malcolm Nason has compiled a photographic library of Irish and International aviation across spanning seven decades.
Malcolm shares his collection (and new updates) on Facebook and Flickr where he has posted over 20,000 photos.
As an Air Traffic Controller for almost 40years, Malcolm could combine his love of aircraft with being paid to watch over them, however, in retirement his love of aircraft and photography has not waned one bit.
I recently interviewed Malcolm and asked him, taher unfairly, to pick his "Top 40".

Great podcast, brings back many memories of Shannon trips, camping by RWY24 (where the Interconair Brit parked) & Malcolm always ready to provide updates, Bryan Carpenter over at the SRS hangar with Well Trade/Shannon Executive.
Excellent interview, well done Malcolm. Such wonderful memories
It was a pleasure to watch this video about Malcolm and his great love of aircraft. The photos are splendid. His narrative is very informative and charming. Malcolm was very generous with his photos down through the years. I have several from over 40 years ago
that I treasure very much.
Well done Malcolm. Well done Mick
Lovely to see Malcolm again, so interesting to listen to, he was a gentleman to work with.
An excellent piece Malcolm
Malcolm will be signing stuff next as he is on the slip to becoming famous!! Nice to see the great man getting grilled on his spotting career.
Always wondered who you were, I started work in Dublin Airport 1967 and share his love of piston engined aircraft, Flew with Ron Giles and Charles Blair in Sandringham LP LVE from Killalo to Aran Islands and visited the American Virgin Islands and flew in a Grummand Mallard, unfortunnately C harles had died in an accident, many memories. Great interview
Richard Nisbet
37:10 that’s my grandfather he was very happy to have a mention in this podcast
This was told to me by my dad (Marcus O’Mahony) not him but anyways
my dad worked as a baggage handler for a Sumer job back in the 80s whilst my grandad or as we call him opa worked there to
One day 2 German F-104s had arrived into SNN and my dad and David were summoned to the tower to translate the controllers speech to German as we have German ancestry
Whilst on departure as a thank you the 2 F-104s did a flyby of the tower at just 4m away from them!
And that became a world record for the closest flyby to a ATC tower
Brilliant episode Mick. Great interview 👏👏👏
Excellent you are a minefield of knowledge , Thanks
Maybe a goldmine rather than a minefield?
It is great to see Malcolm as passionate as ever about aviation. Thank you for sharing your memories with us. It was lovely to hear my Dad being mentioned in one of the stories, one I'd not heard before.
Great stuff!
Great stuff. Malcolm could probably keep this channel supplied with material for quite some time. In many ways it is the amateur photographers, some of whom Malcolm mentioned here, that provide a good public record of aviation activity here in Ireland. There will always be a handful of official images but these are often discarded or even destroyed over time, whereas the amateurs' collections will hopefully live on into the future, especially now that there are websites that can host their material for the longer-term.
Lovely memories. I was a keen spotter based mainly in Dublin in the 1970s and 80s - so slightly later than when Malcolm started his spotting career. I was lucky enough to be around for the tail end of the piston prope era so did manage to log a number of DC-4s, 6s, 7s and Connies etc.
Would love to see a book done up!
Constellation N7777G is at the Science Museum Wroughton, England, not in the TWA Museum at Kansas City.
And the "Darling Lili" and Blue Max aircraft were WW1, not WW2 types - however this is but a detail in the context of an excellent piece.
World War One aircraft and the pilot killed was Liddy, father of Graham Liddy. Glider Pilot Derek Piggott may have flown through a bridge.

@@IrishSkiesPod Piggott was a famous glider pilot. He wrote books on the subject.
