Scottish Island Airports 1963

Nice to see Fyfe Robertson again.
Then and Now

The role of an airport is important for many communities, but rural Scottish islands benefit from them more than most.

People on Tiree and Barra are among those to be served with an air service to the islands from mainland Scotland.

The BBC is highlighting its archive through the BBC Rewind project, as part of the broadcaster’s centenary celebrations.

Here, we look back at Barra airport in 1963 with an appearance by broadcaster Fyfe Robertson – and Tiree airport from the modern day.

Film by Graham Fraser and Graham Stewart
