Listen Back: 88 year old Bobby Coote launches his own art exhibition

A Bailieboro man by name of Bobby Coote has launched his own art exhibition in the town in recent days.

The 88 year popular man certainly likes to keep busy following his exploits in learning to pilot a plane

Bobby's journey of learning to fly a plane was even made into an award winning documentary called 'The Man Who Wanted to Fly' back in 2018.
