Dublin Mother Loses All Three Sons In Helicopter Crash
A Dublin mother, Noleen Burke, who's originally from Kimmage has lost all three of her sons in a helicopter crash.
Five bodies were found yesterday in the search for a missing Dublin-bound helicopter.
Kevin, Donald and Barry were travelling from England to Weston Airport in Lucan for a family confirmation when their chopper hit a mountain in Wales.
Kevin's wife Ruth and Donald's wife Sharon also died.
It's understood that Ruth was originally from the South County Dublin area.
Sea and air search efforts were called off late on Wednesday night due to low lying cloud and poor visibility but police in North Wales were carrying out searches on the ground around Snowdonia National Park in Wales.
The UK Coastguard was co-ordinating the search over the Irish Sea for the Airbus/Eurocopter Twin Squirrel helicopter which vanished off radar in the Caernarfon Bay area.
It's thought Kevin was trying to land the helicopter to avoid dangerous weather.
The recovery of the bodies is expected to resume this morning.
