From: An ATC centre this side of the moon.
There is no range or Danger area there, just a Notam with regard the planned operation. From what I understand it is boys playing with their toys, they build these things in their garden sheds then are allowed to fire them off....Crazy if you ask me. It happens quite often on Fairlie Moor close to Largs.

There are procedures in force with Scottish ATC to protect any commercial aircraft flying within the designated area's though but what happens if your tootling around VFR in class G airspace and stumble upon the site as they are about to fire!!!
