This series gives viewers a behind-the-scenes view of the airports across the Highlands and islands, through the eyes of the people who work there, and we also meet some people who take to the skies for leisure.

In this programme, the RAF scholarship students at Tayside Aviation could be flying solo from Dundee Airport in less than a fortnight. We meet them on day one and find out if any of them get their wings by the last flight of their course.

At Inverness Airport, duty manager Callum Smith is making sure everything runs smoothly for Inverness' first direct flight to Majorca. With 180 passengers to get through the early-morning rush, he is kept on his toes.

And at Tingwall Airport in Shetland, mixed weather has caused delays for pilot Marshall Wishart, but one passenger is determined to fulfill her dream to get to the island of Foula to see where her relatives lived.
