Title: Worlds shortest commercial flight
Post by: Terbs on 06 March 2013, 13:48:57

Hi all.....don't know if this has been posted before.......

Did you know that the worlds shortest commercial flight is here in the UK .....  I expect our Scottish members do :y
Its between Westray and Papa Westray in the Orkney's and is just 47 seconds air time......

You can do the flight, looking out of the passenger window....I think the aircraft is an Islander
