This twelve-leg bushtrip takes you through northern Wales, north-western England, and western Scotland in the UK. The first third of the trip sees us navigating valleys through mountain regions, while the last third is spent island-hopping through Scotland's Hebridean Islands. The full trip is labelled with navlog entries that not only give VFR directions (which you'll need because there's no GPS!), but also bits of cultural background and history. It also has a full suite of interface images.
We depart from Caernarfon, Wales for some dramatic low-level valley flying through the Snowdonian mountains on your way across Wales to Liverpool, home of The Beetles and the historic Albert dock. From there, we follow England's west coast up to Walney Island, gateway to the Lake District National Park. Skimming the surface of the lakes, we wind our way along the Lake District's valleys up to Carlisle on the English-Scotish border. Now we hop from island to island through Scotland's rugged and incredibly varied Hebrides. Take in the picturesque valleys of Mull, the pitted alien landscape of Benbacula, the rugged beauty of Harris, and stop via Barra, the only airport in the world where scheduled flights use the beach as a runway. Our final destination is Stornoway, capital of the outer Hebrides and situated "at the edge of the world".
To install, place the ubiquitous-stornoway folder in your MSFS community folder. Then just select the trip from the Bush Trips menu. No additional modifications are required.
Creation of this bush trip would not have been possible without the tools BushMissionGen by f99mlu and Little Navmap by Alexander Barthel.
Mate, on leg 2, landed at airport but cannot find the correct parking place. The leg will not end. Cheers and looking forward to completing the trip. Bob from Downunder.

Hi, thanks for playing the bush trip! I'm not sure what to say: the trip is supposed to end as soon as you land and come to a stop at Walney Island, even if you stop right on the runway. That's certainly how it worked for me during testing. Sorry not to have any idea what might be going wrong.
