Romantic boyfriend proposes from the air with 'marry me' message written on Scots beach

It was written in the sand for one couple, after a romantic boyfriend proposed from a plane with a special message written on a Scots beach.

Jamie Ford pointed out the proposal to his stunned girlfriend - which read 'Anna, will you marry me?' - written on Barra beach as they flew to the island from Glasgow.

After they landed, the 26-year-old got down on one knee and proposed after the one hour 15 minute flight, Glasgow Live reports.

And his efforts were worth it, because lovestruck Anna said yes.

Jamie praised flight operator Loganair for arranging the special surprise for the happy Yorkshire couple.

He told BBC News : "I hadn't expected the airport to agree to it, but they did and even did test flights using a drone to make sure the message was in the right place for Anna to see.

"We got a round of applause from the rest of those on the flight when they realised what was happening."

Having played their part, Loganair shared news of the (successful) proposal on social media along with the caption: “The Barra beach landing will always be a special experience - it's the world’s only scheduled air service where you land on the beach!

However to some it's even more memorable than that... congratulations to Jamie and Anna who got engaged on our flight above Traigh Mhor Beach!”
