I am not aware that any objections have been raised by Aer Lingus pilots in relation to the height of the tower blocks at Ballymun, Dublin. I am satisfied that the tower blocks do not constitute a hazard to aircraft navigation.
The height of the tower blocks is less than the maximum permissible height laid down by the International Civil Aviation Organisation of which this country is a contracting State. The site is not situated in the approach area of any of the runways at Dublin Airport.
