The good weathers back? Right thats it, ticket booked for the end of the month, heading home. No more "Taxi Golf to Golf2, cross Foxtrot and hold short 26 right, number 4 behind the Waco" for a while.
I'm ready for some "Aye park it up there on the grass will be fine" !!!

Island Bloke......weather looks good for you tommorrow. I guess youll route from the Island to Burrow Head before heading west of Prestwick. A lot of helicopter activity with ex Joint Warrior once you coast in, Danger areas D405, D402/3 all active for the exercise but Burrow head to TRN will keep you clear if them. Give Scottish info 119.875 a call as you coast out from the island and we'll take good care of you fir the rest of your flight 
Crash one.......sorry you were silent today

Happy memories
Ahhhhh- I spent five years or so getting my PPL in and then enjoying it around Scotland in the DA20s - and the Scottish Info guys of course (was one guy used to ask me for shipping reports while over Largs as I guess that's where he was headed after his shift!). Very fun times.
Doubt there is anywhere quite like it to fly to be honest- 10 minutes and you could be in a different world - be it cruising around Loch Lomond or out to the islands- really took it for granted at the time and would now do anything to do it again!
Maybe get a trip back later in the year (and no doubt miss any good flying weather).

It was glorious here in NE Scotland yesterday. Flew from Aberdeen up to the Moray Firth coast and back via Longside (didn't land there) and Perterhead lane on my first solo cross country. There was a thick low level fog along the moray firth but otherwise brill.
. Crikey just looked at SD, that's some exercise you lot are having up there!
