In the good old days I talked to Bac 111 that came up the Stonehaven lane.We also had a C17 that did the same for some training.If the pilot wants to go VFR then,that ok traffic permitting.Mind you there are probably''

It can be a bit on an airshow sometimes

Don't forget the BOAC Viscount that used to flog between Dyce and Prestwick VFR much of the time. (Maybe that was before you were born!)
