There isn't a loop as such. Selkirk - moffat valley is the most commonly used, but still very very quiet

I was thinking more about the North e.g The Highlands, Cairngorms, North and South of Lossie? North of The Forth.

Now that the Tornados have left Lossiemouth you would wait weeks or months in any location north of the Central Belt before you saw a single low flying military aircraft.

Loch Ness and the Great Glen probably sees the most low level traffic North of the Forth, however weeks can go by without anything being seen.

Where is or was the area known in some quarters as Star Wars Valley or Alley in Scotland?
