Glencoe - Bidean Nam Bian - Added to Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Scotland

I have just added this to the map of places to fly your drone at Drone Scene:

Land owner permission requirements unknown.

Parking to the North of the road is off NT land, ascend the path for a better view, then TOAL from there. Use a larger drone (Air3 in my case) and Strobes to aid visibility and to keep VLOS throughout the flight - as it goes over 500m to reach the valley, and ascend along with the terrain, up to 500m above TOAL spot is stil within CAA rues as long as you remain within 120m of the surface.

Relocate as needed for the second valley.

Take car to fly when there is no chance of RAF aircraft incursion or contact the RAF Low Fly unit to confirm it is safe to fly.

The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 21/10/2023. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location.
