    Wed 16 Jul - Stephen Nuttall - 0.5 NM North of HMS Nightjar
    Visited Denegal on 11 July returning from Oban to Blackpool. Manged to arrange Special Branch clearance at Oban by calling them the night before - very easy and helpful. Scottish and Shannon FIS were great, but had to fly low due to wx and lost Scottish - asked a passing jet to relay our ETA and position which they did. The scenery along the Scottish Western isles and then the north coast of Ireland was stunning. The only difference we noticed between Ireland and Scotland was that Ireland had more houses! The whole flight was spent admiring some of the best scenery in the world. The airfield itself was easy to find and set in a wonderful location next to the Atlantic. Quite a lot of commercial traffic but we were slotted in easily and only charged about 15 Euros - likewise, fuel was much cheaper than the UK, so we filled up! Airport cafe was friendly and good value. Must go back some day and spend more time travelling around the area as it just looked so stunning.
