The Lockheed Constellation "Padraig" [St. Patrick] shown flying over Ashford Castle. Aerlínte Éireann was formed in 1947 with the purpose of beginning transatlantic service to Ireland, and they purchased five Constellations to accommodate the traffic. Financial and political concerns intervened, however, and these flights did not begin until 1958. By 1960, the company's aircraft were bearing the name Irish Air Lines.
