Stornoway Airport (EGPO) lies on the Isle of Lewis in Scotland’s rugged Outer Hebrides, surrounded by wild landscapes and the North Atlantic. Once a Royal Air Force base, it now serves as a vital link between the islands and the Scottish mainland. The airport features a 2,300 m runway, often exposed to strong crosswinds and rapidly changing weather conditions – a true test of a pilot’s skill. Approaches over the coastline can be both breathtaking and demanding, with shifting light, mist, and gusty winds keeping you on your toes.

This scenery includes several landmarks in the area, like Lewis Castle.
