Was Eithne Wallis (who was reported to be on Air France Flight 447) actually Eithne Walls from Riverdance?
Eithne Walls was a doctor and dancer. She performed Irish dance as part of the famed Riverdance ensemble. She was an Air France Flight 447 passenger and is presumed to have perished along with all the other passengers of that flight. Sadly, news of debris being found from the missing Air France Airbus A330 flying from Rio de Janeiro to Paris has resulted in the inevitable stories of those who were aboard the ill-fated flight. One of those people was Eithne Walls of Ballygowan, County Down, Ireland. She has been listed incorrectly in the news as Eithne Wallis. Dr. Walls was one of three young Irish women who had studied and received their degrees to be doctors together. They were on their way back home after a vacation in Brazil. All three of the women were in their 20s and died in the crash of the formerly missing Air France flight. Eithne was 28-years-old. Her friends were Aisling Butler, of Roscrea, County Tipperary and Jane Deasy of Dublin. She had qualified to be an eye doctor, but

There’s a bit of Google News confusion right now surrounding the loss of young Irish doctor and Riverdance alum Eithne Walls on Flight 447. Information has been difficult to locate due to a widespread misspelling of her name as “Eithne Wallis.” Walls, 28, hailed from Co. Down. During her six years in medical school at Trinity, she danced part-time with the Riverdance troupe. Eithne was returning from a two-week break in Rio de Janeiro with two fellow doctors (Aisling Butler of Roscrea, Co. Tipperary and Jane Deasy of Dublin) on the ill-fated flight. You can read a statment from Eithne’s family on the BBC’s website. Sources: http://www.inquisitr.
