Nevermind the so-called emergency, look at the aircraft loading!

The plane, which was travelling from Inverness to Stornoway, had two crew and two passengers on board.


On an 18 seater aircraft that is still dire...!

hey! What's with the low-level racism on the forum?! ;)

It's a great flight that one (and very expensive). I used to take it when I worked in inverness and did clinics and operating out on Lewis. I'd fly over on Monday morning and back on Thursday afternoon. Best trip was during the July Hebridean music festival. I took my guitar!
