Anyone know of any airfields or anything like that, that will let u hire it out for an hour or so? Must be at lest 1/4 mile. Or any back roads that are completely straight and flat and easy to spot any cars that happen to come by that would be good?

Cheers

The nearest place as Dougster said is Crail airfield, near St Andrews.

There's also Edzell airfield, which is slightly closer, but I'm not sure it can be hired out for the day.

Edzell can be hired (cost would make your eyes water though )

What about the old aerodrome at Crimmond near Fraserburgh. As far as I know you can still get on the old runways there. Watch out for loose stones though
