"Halfway down Loch Ness I was forced down to 200 feet above the lake and scud cloud appeared below the aircraft. I held a heading over the lake and climbed into IMC to the MSA bursting out into the clear some 25-30 NM further on."

I went from one end of loch ness to the other last winter and went thru what seemed liked 3 different weather systems in a few hours, I thought to myself it's bad enough being here today in my boat doing 25 knots flying down here would be terrifying
