Creag Riabhach Wind Farm - Added to Wind Farms in Sutherland North and West, Scotland

I have just added this to the map of places to fly your drone at Drone Scene:

An isolated windfarm with far-reaching views over the Flow Country of Sutherland, and in late October, the mountain peaks are capped with snow.

This is a spot I have wanted to fly since first passing 3 years ago, but always the weather or time has not been with us, this time, though, we had time and reasonable enough weather.

It is well within EGR610, so make sure you fly outside operational hours or get permission from the RAF Low Fly Unit.

The originator declared that this location was inside a flight restriction zone at the time of being flown. Permission to fly was obtained from Charles and Sam - RAF Low Fly Unit. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location. Landowner permission may be required before taking off.

Happy New year to you both.

Pleased to see you up North again as you both put your travels and music to such good use.

Thanks hon, Happy New Year to you too… Was up there at the end of October, wanted to return over the Yuletide period, but MiL was here, so had to stay home - and tbh wasn’t in a good place to edit footage with her around…

Still a wee bit of editing to do from our last trip up there, and then perhaps a compilation of the trip and (or) an NC500 showreel, using footage from the last 3 years…

My 2025 Showreel will be released on Sunday, and hopefully we shall get some flying in this weekend too :slight_smile:
