Soooooo I have an opportunity to visit the "Emerald Isle" in July and was wondering if anyone knows about any aviation related attractions. Anything?

Im thinking about the Flying Boat Museum

Christopher, maybe check out the Flying Boat (as in Boeing 314) Museum in Foynes on the river Shannon. Neat 314 mock-up and quite a story there about the spy culture of the area during WWII.
