Many moons ago when you could fly a Shorts 330 from Glasgow to Humberside via Teeside, we waited at GLA for a couple of hours due to high winds and then took off. It was still very windy and although it was dark I am sure the aircraft wasn't travelling much more than a running pace when we lifted off.We then made the fastest ever journey from GLA to Teeside that the pilot had ever experienced in a Shorts.
