The Loganair inter-island service operates with one pilot. This opens up the possibility of sitting in the spare seat to their right. I'll be honest, I didn't even know this was an option on a scheduled flight with a commercial airline, but today was my day! Join me in the best seat in the house :)

This video is not sponsored and all opinions are my own
Hi, I’m Steve from Scotland. I plan, film and edit travel videos both at home and throughout the world, with all the work done myself. I try to go a bit beyond the normal tourist route, exploring less-visited places and would be honoured if you'd come along as well. But please don't expect an expert guide, if that's what you're after, this is probably not the channel for you. What you WILL find here though are my 100% honest impressions of what I see along the way, albeit as a layman. And I always believe the star of any video is not me, but the places I visit. I hope this comes across and you can feel like you are there with me. Please remember to subscribe, like, comment, share, all that stuff if you enjoy my videos (or even a thumbs down if you don't!). I make a conscious effort not to say this in the videos themselves, but it would be a massive help to the channel and open it up to bigger audiences around the world. Oh, and who's that with me in many of the adventures? Well that must be my glamorous sidekick Alicja (who features as often as she can). Thanks for watching and enjoy the video :)

FAQs:
WHERE ARE YOU FROM?
I was born in Glasgow but have lived in Carnoustie, Dalgety Bay, Stonehaven, Edinburgh, Montrose, and further afield (Salamanca, Spain & Devonport, New Zealand)
WHEN DO YOU UPLOAD?
Saturdays at 10am Scottish time. Occasionally a bonus midweek video will pop up.
WHAT EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE?
I film with a GoPro11 and my iPhone12. I edit on iMovie and use epidemicsound.com for music. I also use canva.com for thumbnails etc.
WHY DON'T YOU SPEND LONGER AT DESTINATIONS?
The usual suspects I'm afraid - time and money! Hotels especially these days make my eyes water like a true Scotsman.
WHERE'S ALICJA?
Alicja will feature as often as possible, but I'm afraid she has a proper job so it can take weeks for our schedules to match up.
DO YOU PAY FOR YOUR OWN TRAVEL?
Yes I do. I've only ever accepted a complementary ticket as compensation for a previous problem. All my opinions are frank and honest reflections of travel as I experience it.
WHY THE ADS?
It's my income, I can't do this for free.
CAN I CONTACT YOU?
I used to list my email address but felt bad not having the capacity to respond to everything so took it down (and I got a LOT of spam so missed many genuine messages along the way).
HOW CAN I SUPPORT THE CHANNEL?
Watching my videos is of course support enough, but if you'd like to support further, I'll pop links below for Paypal and Patreon. All kind donations are super-appreciated and will go 100% towards future filming trips.
DO YOU ACCEPT SPONSORSHIPS?
I don't like to upset the flow of my videos, so I don't even include mid-roll ads anymore (at significant loss of income to myself), so I prefer not to include sponsorships either. I'm open to a small slide at the start/end of each video, but I don't want to get into talking about products, it's something I don't like as a viewer myself (especially as a viewer who pays for RU-vid Premium). So it's probably a polite no, although all of this goes out the window if you offer me something which can give me the chance to make a video for my audience that would otherwise be impossible.

Wonderful little aircraft the Britten-Norman Islander, originally designed in the 60’s and still going strong worldwide. Perfectly suited (and named) for this kind of work. As a private pilot I would love to get some hands on time in this aircraft type and I’d be betting there’s a captain who loves his job.

It also has the 2nd shortest schedule flight, Stronsay to Sanday, which can be done in 4 minutes 😁. Both islands Steve flew over in this video. We are lucky to have so many inter-island flights available in Scotland. I was fortunate to do 25 flights to 15 islands in 2 weeks in August 2021, which included the Orkney flights, Shetland, Fair Isle, Lewis, Benbecula, several from Oban, and of course the beach landing at Barra. Most are with the small Britten Norman plane which allows great views due to it flying below 1000 ft mostly. I still have a few internal flights to do to complete them all.

Clearly the next flight is the very short one to Westray. Love both places. When we were cycling on Papa Westray and going to Westray we were running a bit late and were racing down the island hoping we wouldnt miss it. A few cars passed us and when they reached the ferry they told the ferry people we were racing down there - and they held the ferry to wait for us. Lovely people in Orkney. Have you visited Sanday?

I fancy that. I may have gone on about this before. If you happen to be in Vancouver, you can get the bus and ferry to Victoria, and from there the float plane to Seattle. Best bush plane ever. When we turned up at the airport (it's just a wee shack at the lakeside) they checked us in, took the bags, and pointed to a bar across the road -they'd call when the plane was coming in. 'Your pilot is ready'. So she shuffled us into the plane - getting weight balanced; so sitting next to her was her call. Then a flight that I wished had gone on - it was about 45 minutes; the seas and the islands. Noisy, but not the nasty shouty things across the ocean. I recommend.

Steve's happy face when he was allowed to sit with the pilot, like a kid in a candy store 😁That steering rod however was very close to your knees the whole time, I reckon it was kinda hard to find a position to make sure you would not touch it in flight.. 😆Lovely wee video and Loganair seems like a legit nice company, I have seen other travel vloggers fly this very same route and they were also allowed to sit up front with the pilot. So in the next part we see the shortest flight eh? I know this flight and is is so weird, just a wee hop over to the other island, is it like 2 or 3 minutes flight time or something? 😀 Enjoyed the video as usual Steve!!

Oh, Steve! That really takes me back. Our close Orkney friend used to live on Sanday, and we used to fly in to see her when the airstrip there was a grass field and the passengers had to be weighed before being allocated a seat! She then moved to the metropolis of Kirkwall and as a peripatetic teacher used to fly to the island schools in the mornings; she'd occasionally get stuck on an island because of the weather though, having to stay with the local head teacher. What a wonderful trip; so glad you were able to make it and share your experience!
