Flight to the Isle of Jura Video

Tonight I'll take you on a flight in an ultralight aircraft from mainland Scotland to the Isle of Jura, Islay's closest neighbour. You get to see the ultralight airplane take off somewhere on the mainland after which it flies over the Sound of Jura towards the Isle of Jura. I particularly liked the middle and final part of the video where you see beautiful aerial views of the sea and land and and the end the approach to Knockrome, Ardfernal and Lowlandman's Bay. The plane lands at a small private airstrip south of Knockrome, now in use by the Air Ambulance Service and built by the Jura Distillery in 1964. As the title suggests, there is a part 2 as well which I will save for a later date. Enjoy part 1!

The Maggie

Buy The Maggie from Amazon The Maggie is one of Ealing studios lesser known comedies. It is however a 'gem' in the true sense of the word. The film has everything, humour, tragedy, pathos, romance. A wily old skipper of a Western Isles 'Puffer' and his motley crew lead all who come into contact with them a fine old time!
