Graeme,
I have done it - in both directions - with my sailboat on the Caledonian
Canal. I can only imagine how beautiful it may be from the air - do it!

It would seem a that flying up the valley between Fort William to
Inverness

I can confirm that! From our boat we suddenly spotted two black geese coming towards us at low level, approaching very fast. The screaming jet engines when “almost” touching the mast top, however, revealed another species altogether. Not a survivable bird strike for a Europa…………..

to be clear I would be in touch with Scottish information and not be in the valley unless forced down by conditions and then I would at least know that there is no high ground ahead if keeping to course/ visual with lake/canal.
