Best wishes, Brian Brian Wilkinson Britain from Above Activity Officer (Scotland) |

Totally wrong location info for: this (SAW046473), and SAW046474 and SAW046475 Their description 'Aberdeen...Works...' fits the picture, but not location "Aberfoyle". They're in the same flight AFL2160 as other which have a correct location e.g. SAW046468. Don't know where the Aberfoyle info came from.
