MOD response to House of Lords Committee report para 6 :-

" Safety Altitude is defined as being 1000 ft above the highest obstacle in the area of operation: for the Mull of Kintyre this equates to 2400ft."

I seem to recall that the Investigating BOI gave an identical figure. I am afraid that there is a paucity of Air Navigation charts for SW Scotland available here in the Midi for me to check.
