I been to airfields where the terrain issues etc. have been worse than North Connel. Its all possible with the right aircraft, 146/RJ and the likes might do it. Approach aids, procedures of course are issue with the hill to the north, but as with all these types of airfields the travelling public can accept the delays/cancellations if the weathers poor on the day. After all, if my history is correct, coastal command and the RAF were operating out of there during the war.
