The world's shortest commercial flight takes place between the two Orkney Islands, Westray and Papa Westray which are located just north of Scotland and are separated by a distance of only 1.7 miles. Operated by Loganair, the flight duration is officially two minutes, but under ideal wind condition can be completed in only 47 seconds.

 

This month's challenge is to see how well you can fly a flight under 5 minutes in length. Starting at Westray (EGEW), you'll fly the 1.7 miles to Papa Westray (EGEP).
