IMC outside CAS

Following on from the Glenforsa thread I am interested in others opinions about flying IMC outwith radar cover and outside controlled airspace.
I'm not sure if this is the correct forum for the following but here goes.

About 20 years ago a Loganair aircraft flew into high ground on an NDB approach to Islay. In the discussion that followed some of his fellow pilots admitted they preferred to descend on a radial from MAC as it was more direct and simpler.

I mentioned this just to highlight that the practice has occurred in the commercial world also.
Is radar available in the Scottish ADRs (Class F)?
DO
