Hope you get to see some fast jets too. I was up there many years ago and it was a huge adrenaline rush watching a pair of Tornados howl past... especially if you've a good high vantage point and they're below you.
I remember being on the ferry from Fort William and was right up at the front where they pulled the ramp up.
I HEARD the plane flying along the water, but couldnt see it since it was lower than my field of vison. often wondered if the pilot was actually fishing - they were that low.
