Scottish airline Loganair flies the aircraft on a service linking Barra, Tiree and Campbeltown with Glasgow.

The Twin Otter is capable of landing on a beach at Barra, the island in the Western Isles Eilidh, 14, was from.

Her friend Laura Macintyre, 15 and also from Barra, was badly injured in the terrorist attack at the Ariana Grande concert which killed 22 people on 22 May.
