F737MAX Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 EGPF - EGPR The day started so well. Was going to enjoy the scenery... The weather became more typical of a Scottish autumn day. 'Dreich' as the locals would call it I'm sure I was VFR... Good thing it started to clear, Barra doesn't have an ILS or any other radio marker, just some runway marker posts Anyone want to build some sand castles whilst waiting for their luggage?(note the GSX crew shuttle bus sent for a crew of just 3 on the DHC-6-300).

Not your typical beautiful vista screenshots. Flying isn't always in perfect weather and that was the case here as I was considerably buffeted around.

Rodger Pettichord Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Nice, F737NG. Not only did you beat the weather, you timed the tide. Either very good or very lucky. Thanks for an interesting trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. I do like it when words in another language carry across to convey their meaning. Sometimes I find them better than the English equivalent!
