MOD West Freugh being situated in the South West of Scotland is a great place to start and explore the beauty that Scotland has to offer. You can also use MOD West Freugh as the start point for a tour of the Lake District, after departure head South East, flying low and fast in the dirt and weeds with the mountains either side in the Lake District is great fun if you own DC Designs F-15.
