The photos show the plane to be a B767.200ER, the only one fitting the bill is EI-CZD which has been stored at Shannon since 2012.

Thanks for the great info PHa and D. Boyd. I am a maritime and aviation enthusiast too. It's wonderful when you can get both at the same time.

Something for the maritime and aviation enthusiast! I researched and narrowed it down to the plane being EI-RUZ Boeing 767-3Q8(ER) which was leased to Transaero Airlines. That Russian airline filed for bankruptsy and ceased operations in Dec 2015.

I flew with them several times...at least they had Boeings in stead of Tu154Bs.

Transaero began as a russian charter airline with aircraft leased from Aeroflot in 1990. By March 2015, Transaero had accumulated around 1.1 billion euros (approximately 77 billion rubles) of debt. Filed bankruptcy in 2015 with shutdown in Oct. 2015. Plane was loaded on a barge for transport by sea to Enniscrone in County Slige the "Clare Champion" reported today. The Transearo Boeing 767-200 was bought by business man David McGowan to be installed in his glamping site near the popular resort.

Transero's 767s are/were owned by Irish leasing company and Irish-registered
