Or maybe Oban.
Everytime I go to Campbeltown there's just me and about 10 firemen making sure that I don't set fire to anything. Not really a GA field in the 'based aircraft' sense.
Nice area to fly in thou' Bet it's nice today. Ho hum, back to work

Nor at Oban I am afraid. I go to that area quite often and always pop in to see Paul and ask. There is nothing either fixed wing or rotary nearer than Cumbernauld AFAIK.

Prestwick is much closer to Campbeltown than Cumbernauld! I can strongly recommend Prestwick Flying Club (www.prestwickflyingclub.co.uk). It's a proper members' club with a friendly atmosphere and the lowest hire rates you'll find. They also have a great range of aircraft for hire, including PA28, Bolkow Junior, Beagle Pup and Chipmunk.

Or you could try the PRESTWICK FLIGHT CENTER (01292 4765230). Pipers, Grummans, Cessnas 172, 152, 150s, Twins etc etc . All very nice smiling happy people, reasonable rates,clean toilets, with an almost constant boiling kettle! (in the kitchen not the toilet)

However rates _are_ cheaper at Prestwick Flying Club. Our toilets are clean too, but the kettle is only boiled when someone wants a cuppa meaning significant energy savings. Our state-of-the-art catering installation means both tea and coffee can be made available free on request. These days there is always real milk in the fridge, none of that powdered guff either.
