Documentary series that goes behind the scenes at the airports across the Highlands and islands. In this episode, Avril Irvine is busy trying to track down some missing passengers.
Anns an t- sreath-sa tha sinn a' faighinn a-mach dè a tha a' dol air adhart air cùl ghnothaichean aig puirt-adhair na Gà idhealtachd is nan Eilean tro shùilean an fheadhainn a tha ag obair annta. An t-seachdain-sa, tha raon-laighe Bharraigh ainmeil air feadh an t-saoghail. 'S e an aon phort-adhair far a bheil itealain là itheil a' tighinn sìos air an trà igh.
Ach ged a tha an trà igh ainmeil, chan eil dùil aig a h-uile duine ris. Aig port-adhair Sumburgh ann an Sealtainn, a bharrachd air a bhith deiseal airson cùis èiginn sam bith, 's iomadh gnìomh eile anns a bheil an luchd-smà laidh an sà s. 'S iad a bhios a' treòrachadh na h-itealain agus a' cumail smachd air na h-eòin, agus an-diugh tha iad a' trèanadh airson latha dubh. Anns an eadar-ama, tha luchd-siubhail air a dhol a dhìth ann an Sealtainn agus 's e à m thrang a th' ann dha Avril Irvine.
In this programme, Barra Airport is world famous for its runway where scheduled flights land on the beach. It is the only place in the world where this happens, but it can still come as a surprise to many. Firefighters Kenny Beaton and Joe Gilles take us through what happens.
At Sumburgh Airport in Shetland, the firefighters are busy. As well as being on standby for any emergency, they have a wide range of other duties. From marshaling planes, to cleaning the runways, and today we follow them through a fire training exercise. In the meantime, in Shetland passengers have gone missing, at a busy time for Avril Irvine.
