Long Man of Wilmington View (By ianinlondon)

The Long Man of Wilmington is an impressive artwork from the middle ages drawn on the side of the South Downs. This particular location is a driveway for a large farm gate, allowing you to park and take off in full view of the Long Man, making it easy to keep in visual line of site. Be aware that another car may pull up and park near you; this is on a quiet country lane but passing traffic will also occur. This spot is more than 150 m from residential buildings so it may be better for larger model drones. There is also a full car park around 200 metres away shown on TOAL.

Dark Sky Viewing Point, Trumpan, Waternish Peninsula, Skye (By AlbionDrones)

Amazing views over the Minch to the Outer Hebrides - when clear - and stunning coastal scenery of Waternish and Dunvegan peninsulas.

Park in the Trumpan Church Car Park and use the fenced-off area with picnic benches for TOAL, check with anyone else present that they are ok with you flying - it is quite remote, but there were people there on both occasions we visited, none had any issue with the drone flying...

Watch out for the MIDGES! They are fierce and have big sharp pointy teeth, either invest in some SMIDGE (other midge repellants are available) or take a sacrificial tasty snack for them, in my case the husband worked well, they seem to like him and will happily go and chase him, leaving me free to fly...
