Former airline pilot Bill Innes tells a humorous anecdote about Captain David Barclay, MBE, during an illustrated talk about the pioneers of Scottish aviation held in An Talla, Tiree on 5th July 2004.
The name David Barclay is synonymous with the development of aviation in the Western Isles and with the Scottish Air Ambulance Service. He flew his first ambulance flight with Northern & Scottish Airways in 1935 and at the end of his career had flown more than two thousand ambulance missions.
He was awarded the MBE in 1942 and invested with the order of St John of Jerusalem in 1950. Much loved and well respected by those who knew him, Captain Barclay retired in April 1965 with an overwhelming send-off from islanders in Barra and Tiree.

`Tooth` of a mechanical harvester
Hooked piece of iron thought to be one of a row of many `teeth` from the blade of a mechanical harvester (tractor- or horse-drawn). The teeth would have combed and separated the crop, while a blade running back and forth along the teeth would have cut the crop. Sold in pairs from Brown`s shop in Balemartine. Found in a fireplace in Kenovay.
