Maybe a long shot but theres an disused airfield in the small village of Errol. It's approximately 5 miles from Perth.

I have been trying to get in touch with required authorities but to no avail. Is it possible that someone living near by can possibly to a bit of sniffing and ask? I know that there the airfield was used for parachuting but that was a few years back when I went.

Cheers Tiko

My big sis learned to drive there many moons ago, back then you could just so up and drive, things might have changed now tho, if not there is no reason why you can't just show up.

I might be able to make this meet now, its in my home area anyway so a decent Sunday dinner might be worth stopping home for.

Cheers Pete...just waiting on a phone call and give my usual spiel

Like you said it's a charity based organisation, I'm sure a £1 quid for each car wouldn't dent our pockets yeah?

***UPDATE***

no matter how much I raised our donation, clearly wasn't interested.

Quite funny thing the chap said "It's still very secret here," You'd think they were training the SAS

Whats the criteria for a location is it space or nice vista for the background? 

If space be the priority there is a massive car park at South Inches on the Scone side of Perth, not the best view but I used to park there in my boy racer days.

Ok just spoken with Tiko, (sorry mate if I'm stealing your thunder).

He has spoken with the general manager of Hunting Tower or whatever its called and the guy has said that he is willing to put aside 60 car parking spaces as well as giving us one of the function suites free of charge and put on tea's and coffee for £2.50 per head.

It also sit on 4 acres of woodland so should be cool for Photos.

I say meet at Wheel Inn and then head off to this venue for the photos.
