I'm originally from Shetland. Love seeing these flights, grew up taking them every week for work to Edinburgh!

I love Loganair. By far the best regional airline I've flown on. Their crews are universally lovely.

As an ATR 76 F/O I enjoyed this episode thoroughly, as for the loo i'be been flying ATR for almost 4 years now and never have i done no.2 on an ATR , too claustrophobic, always held it in for a proper toilet lol.

I flew into Newquay Airport several times in one day in the mid 1970's when it was still RAF St Mawgan. On that occasion it was in a BOAC Boeing 707. The TV presenter Hughie Green used to arrange "Opportunity Flights" for Air Cadets, we'd get a ride in a BOAC or BEA training flight to either RAF St Mawgan or RAE Bedford. Our ATC Squadron was based in Ealing (West London) and I lived in Chiswick and could get to Heathrow in about 35 to 45 minutes on my push bike. We had to report to BOAC engineering at about 5 am and then get briefed with the crew. We took off at about 7 am flew to Cornwall and then spent the day doing circuits and landings or go arounds at St Mawgan returning to Heathrow for about 7:30 pm, loads of hours in my ATC log book. St Mawgan was interesting at that time as it was a main Nimrod base so there were Nimrods dispersed all around the airfield and a few Jetstreams.

@possel4747

2 жыл бұрын

In my tour at St Mawgan we used to put ATC cadets on Nimrods for air experience. One day the only possible flight was a boring 7 hour Tapestry fishery patrol over the North Sea, and I identified three cadets who happily went off on it. Towards the end of this flight the aircraft was diverted to an SAR task over the North Sea looking for a missing vessel. So they flew to PLE (practical limit of endurance) which was almost 10 hours, landing at Waddington where they overnighted. The next day they took off and did a further 9.5 hours on the same task (unsuccessfully), lannding back at St Mawgan having flown over 19 hours in two days!😂

When I lived in Shetland in the mid-1970s to mid-1980s I used to fly in and out of Sumburgh, sometimes to Aberdeen, sometimes to Edinburgh. Flights were operated by BA then - Viscounts and then ATPs; Loganair flew a route from EDI to Tingwall, a small airstrip further north in Shetland, with a Twin Otter. Loganair also flew the inter-islands routes within Shetland and provided the air ambulance service with Britten-Norman Islanders. No route in those days from Newquay, so it was most interesting to see the flight from your perspective, Noel.

Fun flight and fun video! My trip to the Shetland Islands took a lot longer and lasted just five hours. I sailed there aboard a tanker from New York in 1985. The ship unloaded the cargo, refueled and made the voyage back to the US (to Texas). I spent the few hours there at a pub. The round trip took a month. A five-hour flight on an ATR sounds more exciting, but I did enjoy spending a lot of time on the ship bridge and chilling with the crew.

I love the noise a turboprop makes when it takes off. And yes, a Tunnocks caramel log is delicious 😋

I remember it being a tiny aircraft and once I got to sit in the right hand seat as there was no room in the back on one trip back to Glasgow. Memories.

Hey Noel, when the ATR landed at Manchester, it's indeed an irony that the stopover was just in an airport just near your home of Mansfield, and if I were you, I'd be thinking that "I wish that I was home instead of being here for a stopover!"

Noel, thanks for pointing out how quiet this aircraft actually is! Already the -500s aren't that bad, but the efficiency of the noise and vibration cancelling system on the -600 Series baffles me every time I sit on one of these birds. Farther back in the cabin, away from the props, it is even more quiet, beating even many jet in my opinion. In fact I'd say this is probably the most comfortable shorthaul/regional aircraft out there.

Love the ATR. I’d enjoy that flight for sure!

The ATR 72 toilet looks a lot smaller than on the Dash 8! I see that the sink does not work and that there are sanitising wipes in there instead. I believe that has to do with the winterisation of the aircraft, so removing the running water to the sink reduces the risk of freezing the water lines. At least this is what Dash 8 operators do in Canada in winter and I think the procedure is similar for the ATR.

I prefer it when you end the video in the accommodation you're staying at. Longer the video the better

Five layers of wafer, four layers of caramel covered in milk chocolate and on a milk run up north, sounds pretty good to me. You actually ended up having 15 layers of wafer and 12 layers of caramel

In the airline industry, the definition of a "flight" is a single aircraft traversing a route with any number of stops, each of which is "short", just long enough to drop off and pick up passengers. The journey between any take-off and the landing which follows is a "sector" or "leg". Noel's trip was a single flight of 3 legs. Flight numbers are irrelevant because they are arbitrary, especially when codeshares are involved. The term "flight" applies only to aircraft. Passengers do not make flights, they follow "itineraries"; an itinerary is very similar to a flight but the stops do not have to be short, and you can change plane at any of the stops. An itinerary usually ends when the passenger leaves the airport, but some airlines incorrectly define an itinerary as everything that is on a single booking.

Logan air - a very useful airline. Very much enjoyed flying with them last year.

You forgot to mention that you were on the UK's longest domestic flight Noel.

It's funny how flying is so enjoyable to you and you have absolutely zero fear. I'am still anxious when flying.

Haha 5:36 the two pilots take a sneaky pic of Noel there

Just curious as to the cause of the delay and if the pilots made it out of the Shetlands on time, or if you ended up meeting them in the hotel bar! Really enjoying your videos.

Five hours on a turboprop. Have you lost your mind? I hope you have good noise cancelling headphones. I did like the frame rate/prop sync on takeoff though.

Tunnocks are always the little treat on any trip :D

Hi, Noel. My first time on your channel and Iwill certainly enjoy binge-watching all your previous vids and those to come.

But, the big unanswered question: Did the plane get back out of the airport again that night?

Well if it was the 14th April, no it didnt and there were passengers in Sumburgh, Aberdeen and Manchester all sitting waiting for hours for a flight that got later and later and was eventually cancelled. The danger of running one single aircraft over 3 joined routes late in the day and why the longest domestic flight aint great if youve got somewhere to be.

@@robg3545 Big airlines like BA have spare aircraft at most airports so that an aircraft running late doesn't necessarily trash the schedule. Small airlines can't afford to have expensive planes sitting around idle, so if you travel with them there is a greater risk that your itinerary gets blown apart.

Noel you’ve given me inspiration to trundle around our country in turbo props . What a brilliant idea my local airport’s SOU so a nice selection of operators to choose from .😀

That was cheeky of the supernumerary crew taking a sneaky picture. As for Tunocks, dip it in tea, delicious 😋

i need to go from Brighton to Liverpool next week, rather than spend £150 round trip in petrol, Im flying via dublin FR £12.99 each leg!

Tunnocks caramel wafers are one those things that are vastly underrated by those who live in the UK. I have a cousin who has just moved back to Scotland after living in Bangkok for many years with his daughter who was actually born in Thailand and had never been to the UK and Tunnocks Caramel Wafers are her favourite food since arriving in Scotland. I also used to drive a van during the night on a route that took me past the Tunnocks factory in Uddingston, South Lanarkshire (just outside Glasgow).

Nice interesting and relaxing video! I love the music choice as well!

Thanks for sharing, I didn't know we could have such a long domestic flight withing the UK

@@willcormier9598 Paris to Papeete, French Polynesia would be longer but there is always a stopover in LAX. I believe a year or two ago Air Tahiti Nui flew straight to Paris from Papeete without stopping at LAX. You can Google it. I'm also thinking about Boston or New York to Guam. It's possible with a Boeing 777LR.

People in Brisbane commuting to Pilbara Iron Ore mines. 5 hours to Perth then 3 hours in another jet to the mine then an hour on a bus. Every 2 weeks there and back.

those headrest covers are super cool.👍😉

Aside from being an AV Geek, I also enjoy seeing the many places that you travel to, most of which I will never see in person. Well done again, as usual!

I would highly recommend the Islands, to anyone. There is a good public transport network, but I'd recommend a car to make the most out of the islands. Northlink ferries operate a very good service from Aberdeen every day.

At the risk of being controversial a caramel wafer has never been a favourite of mine & I’m a Scotsman 🤣 A tunnocks tea cake on the other hand………..😋 Good video as always 👍🏻
