A 14-year-old girl performs her first loop-the-loop.

Teenager Francesca Mountain gets a real surprise during her lesson at the Highland Gliding Club near Elgin.

Anns an t-sreath-sa bidh sinn a' faighinn a-mach dè a tha a' dol air adhart air cùl ghnothaichean aig puirt-adhair na Gàidhealtachd is nan Eilean tro shùilean an fheadhainn a tha ag obair annta, agus bidh sinn a' coinneachadh ri feadhainn eile a bhios a' sgèith airson spòrs.

An t-seachdain-sa, aig Club Glaidhdear na Gàidhealtachd faisg air Eilginn tha Francesca Mountain, a tha ceithir bliadhna deug a dh' aois, a' cur car a' mhuiltein ann an glaidhdear airson a' chiad uair. Abair spòrs! Aig port-adhair Inbhir Nis tha an rèis bhliadhnail 5K a' gabhail àite air an raon-laighe aig meadhan-oidhche, agus tha Callum Mac a Ghobhainn agus Dan Mason air bhioran agus iad a' feitheamh ri plèana Lunnainn tighinn a-steach gus am faigh iad cuisean a chur air dòigh. Agus, ann an Inbhir Ùige, tha sinn ag ionnsachadh beagan a bharrachd mu Andrew Bruce a tha os cionn a' chompanaidh connaidh.

This series gives viewers a behind-the-scenes view of the airports across the Highlands and islands, through the eyes of the people who work there, and we also meet some people who take to the skies for leisure.

In this programme, 14-year-old Francesca Mountain gets a real surprise during her lesson at the Highland Gliding Club near Elgin when she gets to do her first ever loop-the-loop, and we capture every moment through the cameras on board.

It's the night of the annual 5K Midnight Runway run at Inverness Airport, and Callum Smith and Dan Mason are kept on their toes. They have to wait for the London plane to arrive before they can set out the markers and time is against them.

Meanwhile in Wick, who knew that Andrew Bruce who runs the fuelling company is a pilot himself? He takes us up in his plane to tell us more.
