Perhaps. I presume there runways adequate for B-747 operation in
Scotland and all those intermediate airports.


Glasgow (2700m) and Prestwick near Glasgow(3000m) can take a 747, Edinburgh
at 2600m might also. There are two RAF bases which could also take anything
big as they are emergency diversion fields.

Long before there is Reyjavik in Iceland

So when did two 747s collide in Scotland?
