Hi Paul! Long time no fly!
Yes, I didn't remember the wind, but then 45G50 wasn't really unusual up there was it???
I remember skating sideways along the runway at Islay on another dreadful day with crosswinds that were clearly high enough to re-establish the Sheds Xwind limits somewhat further up the Beaufort scale.
Happy days, and yes, have to agree with the poster who commented on the diversity of the characters who worked there. Hey, someone had to do it!
I remember one very stony silence after I mentioned to my Captain, that I'd once been a social worker.....best leave it that eh?
Drop me a pm if u like... Cheery, S.
