Female pilot flying shortest flight(2.5 minutes) in the world, Papa Westray to Westray, Orkney

[@marcg3752]

When you're cleared to land at the same time as takeoff.

[@robinboyes8749]

In August 2019 I did EGED from 22 to EGEW 27 - flight time 65 seconds. I have my certificate :-)

[@mothmagic1]

The only scheduled airline flight where you can see the destination from the departure

Greetings from Ireland! Fair play!!

[@iancurtis1152]

[@djtester]

she hit someone who was pulling a wheeled luggage, that's why you see it's handle stuck to the windshield.

[@TRPGpilot]

Funny :-)

[@nikolaospeterson2495]

Wow! Such a Long flight! (no just joking)! That is really awesome. Now I have to do that on my flight sim (Microsoft X) What was your highest altitude? Also, is this open to GA (general aviation) craft as well?

[@kennethsim4817]

It flies at an altitude of 350ft speed of 150 mph (130knots) min flight time 47sec max flight time 3mins avredge flight time 1min 20secs 80secs

[@Barabyk]

Their logbooks are probably 500 pages thick after a year of operation :D

[@tjfSIM]

Nicely done!

[@robertsnorrason2494]

You can fly that route in ground effect alone...

[@MrNaysolo]

I like all of your vdos.

[@quasiumbra7014]

Love the long blond hair at the end... women pilots kick ass! 👍

[@flybywire5866]

Its no takeoff. It just hops in the air :-)

[@gordo1163]

this was more like the longest worlds shortest flight

[@furfle]

I met here before at the kirkwall airport

[@4133EWvianen]

What is the purpose of this????

[@paco4639]

What's point of most aviation videos on youtube? For people interested to click on link

[@nixmoretta13]

You're here aren't you?

[@richardbuxton3546]

A contract to operate the shortest scheduled flight in the world has been awarded after a bidding war between three rivals. A Scottish airline won the contract for the flight between Westray and Papa Westray *which usually lasts less than two minutes but, depending on the wind direction, has been as short as 47 seconds* The route, which is just over a mile, was among those in Orkney offered as a bundle of the islands' air services in a contract worth up to nearly £4million. tinyurl.com/bj9gfwd

[@garethwallcroft9429]

This is not the shortest flight, the shortest flight is 55 seconds, and no it's not a privately owned aircraft that does it.

[@richardbuxton3546]

+Artificial Horizon So - do tell about the 55 second flight. And are we talking short as in distance or short as in time?

[@kennethsim4817]

This is at 47 seconds is the flight time depending upon weather but 47 sec is the original flight time

[@jameschristian779]

theres shorter, iv seen a 1 minute 13 second flight

[@joshsimulator8852]

James Christian This can be 55 seconds if conditions are right

[@jameschristian779]

***** Nice, I stand corrected 55 seconds is impressive

[@kennethsim4817]

The original flight is 47 sec long depending upon weather

[@volador2828]

The good news... It's a 80 second flight, . the bad news, you have to go thru TSA and have your luggage checked.

[@mothmagic1]

And it if you can't don't bother trying

[@jonathanwheeler4767]

get rid of the sun visor you make us look tooo good

[@LotteStarck]

... Touche'!

[@T1mm0s]

[@craigpennington1251]

She really turns that thing around quick. From the camera angle, looks like it might go over. What no ferry boats? That was a short flight. I bet that flight sucked up more fuel than a 3 State flight.

[@stevelogan5475]

I'm logan

[@tanello2]

why dont they use helicopter ? it totally useless to use a small plane to fly 2 min

[@tanello2]

okey then .

[@TheTraveller747]

this video is long....

[@sleepingsealproductions]

Not the shortest flight, the shortest regularly scheduled flight. might be different.

[@nixmoretta13]

What, can't women pilot planes then?

[@brianjensen4568]

Guess what....build a bridge!

[@montiraruba2831]

All she did was take off, go around, and land at the same airport. Yep,!!

[@Gordanovich02]

No.
