Personally I think I'd go east until I saw blue (well, sort of greyish green), turn left and keep going until I see Orkney, then route over Orkney northwards and DR to Shetland. There are loads of airfields to stop at for fuel along the East Coast, most worth visiting.
I also agree with others - go to Orkney, it's gorgeous.
