What is recorded here
Tuskar Rock marks the sea where sixty-one people died when an Aer Lingus Viscount named St. Phelim fell on 24 March 1968. The rock stands in County Wexford water, a sharp reminder that joy and disaster can share the same sky. Those lost were not numbers but passengers, crew and hopes carried into a sudden dark end.
