These used to fly from a grass airfield 1 mile north of Oranmore until activities were transferred to Carnmore, the site of the Galway airport, no longer serving commercial flights. Eventually Connemara airport was built just north of Aranmore to make the flights shorter and Aer Arann transferred to that location with a connecting bus service operating from Galway city. The BN2 is a STOL aircraft specially built for interisland and short commutes. Scottish airlines operate several examples to the Hebrides and other offshore islands.

Run up checks at the end of the runway. We always do ours at the holding point

You find Islanders all over the world. I flew as a passenger in them many times in the mid 1970s on the other side of the world from Ireland. In and out of bush airstrips on islands in the South West Pacific. Love that engine sound.

In case you are interested, I have just uploaded an amazing landing video of a KC-130 Hercules from my flight to Antarctica this February. :)

¿Eres ingeniero mecánica ? se ve que entiendes del vocabulario especifico de engranajes y de la aerodinámica y del movimiento rectilíneo. Boomm!!

viejo genial tu vídeo pero debes hacerlo con menos detalles aunque te lo digo de buena y también me gustan esas cosas de engranajes pero un poquito mas básico :) pd : di like buen video
