Airfields near Aberdeen

Hi folks.

Once I'm qualified (hopefully not too far away) I fancy taking a trip up to Aberdeen to visit some friends up there and perhaps stay overnight - also would make a good navex for my hour-building.

Aberdeen Airport is a big no-no due to OTT charges so I was thinking of visiting one of the other airfields in the area... having a look at my half-mil chart I can see Insch, Fordoun and Hatton in the local area which look like viable options. Then I could get a taxi, train or a lift to Aberdeen city centre (distances are a bit much for walking! - probably about 15-20 miles at least, judging from the chart).

Any ideas or recommendations for where to go? Would do the trip in either a PA-28 or PA-38.
