Quick note to DB6 and others.......
If/when you fly near the Glasgow/Edinburgh areas (notice; not just the control zones) please give us a call. Not only may there be bigjets in your area but also police helicopters, local club a/c etc which can often be out on specific details, airtests etc. I won't make you do anything you don't want to do and i may be able to give you pertinent info on that helicopter that is about to try and imitate a ballistic missile (yeah, i know, but there is no telling what a chopper driver will try and do!!) in your 12 o'clock at two miles. The most i'll ask you to do is to bung on a squawk and if you're low level confirm that you are maintaining your own terrain sep (it gets it on the tapes!!). I do'nt know about all the tech talk above but the simple solution is ; go Ifr, talk to us, we'll help you!.
