@MatthewMarshall1 thank you

@emiratesA380NCL The aircraft are washed down at an airport, when our club flew up there with pipers our aircraft got washed down at a stop so it didnt corrode.

@Jonneca --I see man! But I do not think the ( beach ) the runway makes for a great long takeoff roll! You would want to spend as little time possible on it on a takeoff roll! BTW-seen other vids where the water (tidal water never totally dried up) makes for dicey conditions!

@franthree Judgeing by the length of the "runway", I don't think there have to be STOL aircrafts. Without being an expert myself, I imagine a Sky Caravan and a Mooney would be able to takeoff from Barra.

Great vid! BTW--anyone know what other kind of aircraft are allowed to fly into Barra? I think maybe an Islander? Do they have to be STOL aircraft? Thanks!

Is it true that the paved part of the beach where the plane parked?

@patcism
No, Nothing is paved, it is all sand !

are the aircraft washed down on arrival in Glasgow or Barra because I am sure that the salt in the sea water increases/causes corrosion
