I have on several occasions seen light single engined aircraft pass
directly over the SGU site at Portmoak on their way - I presumed - to
or from Edinburgh airport. They were at 1000', or to put it another
way, 300 - 600' below the height the winches cables were getting to.

in the Cheviots, about 2 wingspans away from me?
