I recently completed a firefighting placement at OBN (EGEO) on the west coast of Scotland. Here are a few visitors that have popped up over the last few weeks.
The Apache was the most magnificent aircraft I’d seen to date. What a beast.
We get low approaches from C130’s and yesterday, a low approach and go around from a Airbus A400M Atlas.

Hope you enjoy the pictures!

That A400M is so good looking! You have some skill there.
Aye I’m no expert but I think you’ve pretty much nailed it!
I like that OK-PCC aircraft 😍
Cream leather suites inside, champagne and fancy biscuits. The full package! Lol
Here’s the feature request for it - definitely my second favourite turboprop, lucky to spot one
This was in the options for the voting (the one where CRJ won)
Love the first GA shot
I’m from the west coast of Scotland to! Glad to know someone else from Scotland is on the forum :)
Nice aircraft, I remember seeing apache’s at airshows when I was younger.
Haha that’s awesome, hey there!
Ahem you’re forgetting yours truly
Sorry Misha, I never knew you lived in Scotland, I though you lived in London. I don’t know your real name so I dont know…sorry
After running hunders of advanced computer programs; spending billions on research and development and acquiring the greatest scientists of the century, we have finally discovered that @MishaCamp’s real name is: Misha Camp

Or maybe there’s something that we don’t know 🙃
Some good captures there @Laura_Murphy :) been to Oban a few times as I’m from Scotland too.
Wow, such beautiful aircraft and scenery. Amazing shot of the A400M! That red helicopter must’ve been cleaned just before that shot, nice and shiny.
