I'm hoping to come up in DRAM for the weekend of the 1st-4th May too .... 
Guess I'll be getting my feet wet and camping under the wing with the midges for company ?
Shall I bring a kite ?

I have actually just gone weak at the knees reading that. No, really. I have.
I don't even know what a "Cranachan" is, but know I want three of them.

Alternate layers of toasted oats, Whiskey cream and fresh strawberrys.

Looks bloody superb.
Enjoy your weekend boys it looks like your going to be extremely well fed (which is what I expected in the first place)
And edited to add after re-reading that it, looks pretty bloody healthy to me.
I keep coming back though to the chicken stuffed with haggis.

Chicken & Haggis - to die for! Closely followed by the (in)famous Bambi Burger. I'm told the fish is pretty special too, but I don't use the stuff myself! Must get back to Mull soon.
With all these aviators munching Brendan & Alison's magnificent fare, perhaps they should be looking at putting an extra few metres on the end of the strip, just in case!
Glenforsa Whiskey Cranacan
BTW Original GF, since when did Scotch Whisky acquire the 'e'?

Ed,
If it all goes horribly wrong, we can leave the air tank and spare pants behind which should mean we can fit a few extra Ginsters in the 182. Leave the covers and you should have room for a couple in the Yak Sack as well!

No cheese souffle on your menu anymore? 
Did you get rid of it after my undercarriage "let itself down" last summer?? I can assure you it wasn't because I ate too much while there!!!

Indeed. In fact, after reviewing the revised STOL characteristics of the Maule, with Wide-Body and The Gorilla on board, I understand the provision of arrestor gear and a steam catapult on the runway has been considered.

I am sure if you forewarned them OGF could provide haggis neeps and brussel sprouts for wide-body and Gorilla.
Then with a bit of CRM and an emergency pair of pants just in case a JATO departure shouldn't be to much effort.

1st/2nd/3rd trip north
Anyone privy to the plans for heading to Glenforsa this weekend ?
I'm in the Yak 50 (YAKK) from North Weald & will probably be in the Lakes Thursday/Friday based out of Kirkbride & fueling from Carlisle..
Couldn't get hold of John Ware to confirm the plan & stumbled upon this thread c/o google
Ta in advance
