Some of the BA/Loganair Twin Otters land on the beaches up in the Orkneys and Shetlands on commercial services, so I wouldn't be too suprised by anything!

used to have chipmunks flying over our football field at that height on landing sometimes. From the angle this was shot, the plane looks a little lower than it is. Not much but a little.

Thank you! The name had escaped me!

The RAF frequently operates C-130 off Pembrey Sands in Wales too...

Just how short is this pre-landing beach ?.......take a look Here..........you can actually see the corner of the runway in this image............
