For residents of the island of North Ronaldsay, this aircraft takes them to the facilities of Kirkwall in Orkney in 25 minutes. In contrast, the weekly ferry trip takes more than two and a half hours. For almost 40 years Islanders operated as air ambulances, with aircraft based at Lerwick in Shetland, Kirkwall, and Glasgow.

This Beech E-18S aircraft was operated by Loganair. It flew their first international service, from Glasgow to Stavanger in Norway, via Aberdeen, in July 1969. It was also used to carry newspapers on the Glasgow to Stornoway route. Due to its long range, this aeroplane also operated longer distance air ambulance flights. These included taking transplant patients to specialist hospitals in the south of England.

de Havilland Dove G-ANOV wears the white, black and red livery and branding of the Civil Aviation Authority for when it was used for aircrew licence testing and also on calibration flights for airport radio aid systems while based at Stansted Airport in London.
