Happy St. Patrick’s Day! St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated by Irish people and people of Irish descent; many revelers associate the holiday with wearing the color green and the usage of Shamrock symbolism. Aer Lingus, the flag carrier of Ireland, was founded in 1936. The airline has used the Shamrock on their aircraft for more than 80 years and has incorporated the Irish emblem into four different livery designs, including their most recent rebranding. #AvGeek #AerLingus #StPatricksDay #Shamrock postcard: Aer Lingus, Douglas DC-3; 1940s-1950s Gift of Thomas G.
