Would never work IFR. The curved approach to avoid terrain makes the old Hong Kong around the corner seem easy. The general weather although much the same as Inverness, experiences a lot of poor viz days. However Inverness has a good approach path especially in the prevailing SW conditions, Oban has some frame cracking terrain. Still the service there is friendly.
