IMPORTANT REMINDER - your pilot may have to vary the route on the day depending on the weather conditions – however, you can cover a great deal of ground in around 30 minutes of flying in our seaplane – approximately 60 miles in fact ! No matter what the cloud base or visibility prepare yourself for a fantastic experience.

The exact flight route cannot be guaranteed on a particular day due to local variations in visibility and cloud height but flights will fly as close to the published route over the magnificent Scottish West Coast landscape and the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park landscape as possible.

Flying at heights between 500 and 3,000 feet our preferred routing on this flight is north west over Loch Lomond towards the mountains, glens and lochs of the ancient Arrochar Alps which were once connected to North America .

As you depart Loch Lomond view the intriguing islands on Loch Lomond that mark the Highland boundary fault line with Ben Lomond, Scotland’s most southerly munro to the North East.

The flight then turns south west over Loch Long (loch of ships) and the Cowal peninsula towards Loch Fyne (Scotland’s longest loch). The flight crosses Loch Striven where the Dambuster’s bombs where tested and developed back in 1943 and then routes onwards to the north of the Kyles of Bute and the village of Tighnabruaich.

With good visibility the islands of Gigha, Islay and Jura can often been seen to the west.
