The last time I went into Oban I had three goes at landing before I finally twigged I needed to be at a level that would normally run the wheels across caravan roofs so as to deal with updraft from the stonking the cross wind and the hill that was blowing me back up into the sky.

I got nothing but help and sympathy! The staff in the tower (even after the third go-around) and the reception were friendly and courteous and PK was his usual dry self while filling up my aeroplane. The management seemed not to be officious either.

I shall be back later in the year all going well and may get to stay with Brendan and Allison again.
