Fair Isle Journey
A Winter Story of Weather, Waves, and Wanderlust
Heat Wave Departure
Expected clear weather conditions for the journey to Fair Isle during England's heat wave. The forecast suggested minimal weather complications, with perhaps only some typical Shetland winds.
Weather Closes In
Weather conditions deteriorated rapidly. Fair Isle became below flight limits, forcing the cancellation of the afternoon flight. The unexpected weather system brought challenges.
In the Air with Skyelark
Despite the cancellation, managed to get airborne with Skyelark secured in the hold. The aircraft pushed through challenging conditions, defying the earlier flight restrictions.
Fogbank and Lightning
Encountered the fogbank that rolled in due to the heat wave, accompanied by rain and lightning. The contrast between the expected clear conditions and the actual turbulent weather became apparent.



Good Shepherd Ferry
Alternative arrangements made to take the Good Shepherd Ferry. The reliable maritime connection would provide safe passage when the skies remained unforgiving.
