A small airport

[wellinghall]

bunn wanted a photograph of a small airport. This is the only digital one I have; an eight-seater Britten-Norman Islander at Westray airport, in Orkney. This is the only sort of plane that uses the airport. Note the sophisticated luggage-handling system.

I feel this is less of an airport than an airstrip really, but I do like the livery of the plane and the view behind it!

I think it's Papa Westray in the background. Westray to Papa Westray is well-known as the world's shortest scheduled flight, at 2 minutes (although depending on wind direction, flights can take anything from 1.5 to 2.5 minutes).
