    Ireland is strictly neutral

    Eerr…

    If planes are landing then it’s a matter of resources to do the inspections. Does any landed plane get boarded like the commercial ones?

      We’re neutral militarily, not morally. :)

      And yeah inspections on landed planes would be a resourcing issue but I took from reading that article that it was an airspace violation in this instance.

        Also, what are the regulations for manifests of said flights? Are these military flights (and, i assume, except if so)? Should reduce the effort otherwise - although they can always lie…

      What’s this about? Are you trying to imply that neutral states cannot recoginse other states? Switzerland recognises the existence of many states.

      No it isn’t. Getting a Gard or two to look at a plane isn’t the limiting factor. If they have the manpower to arrest and incarcerate civilians who try to inspect the planes (like Tarek & Ken, or Mick & Clare), then they have the manpower to inspect the planes.
