This is only going to be short because its only a short story.
My gran dad who lived in Scotland since he was 11, anyway he goes back up to visit the highlands every year, one year he told me he was driving through the highlands and went through a shortcut up these hills, it was night time, he drove up the hill and he saw a very bright light in front, then he noticed 3 black helicopters, they was hovering over him then a jeep came up to him, a man got out and said this is a very private area please go back or you will be shot, anyway he went back that way i can't really say if he was lying or anything because when he told me that we was on about aliens and that.

has anyone heard of a base or something up the highlands of Scotland?

Ssssshhh!! Nothing of any importance happens up in that part of the woods.

Can you tell us where he was in the highlands and when, There's been war games going on in the highlands from time to time and one in oct of this year.

i think he may have been pulling your leg, how would he know the helicopters were black if it was night time?

on the other hand it could have been some sort of MOD thing, without more detail it's hard to know. did he say where he was going or where he was coming from?

he didn't really tell me the pacific place but he always goes to his birth place, near loch ness, ill try and get the home town for you. thank you for the replys

I used to live in Scotland (beautiful place) and where i used to live was a good hotspot i think it was called ayeshire or airshire not too sure anymore lol cant remember it was near the isle of Arran

which part of Scotland was your Grandad from or had this encounter

pieman i thought he was pulling my leg at first but he sounded to serious, ill ask more about the story.

i know the place began with G defiantly near Glasgow a dodgy place though.

the place he was born was near the hills of Glasgow though he said he lived on the hills, near mother well or something that's as far as i can remember.

Ive never been Scotland, though i'm sure he was not that far away from Glasgow i will ring him now .

If it was Glasgow then the nearest Loch is Loch Lomond, But thats not in the highlands, Maybe you have got muddled up?
And there's no hills in Motherwell.

Edit: I ment the nearest well known Loch.

if it is night time, then you shouldnt be able to see anything if it pitch black. But perhaps he heard the helicopters but couldnt see them. More likely, they had search lights, or some lighting so he could see the coulour.

DO you think that someone who is dressed in black trousers cant see their legs if they go out at night? Granted it maybe harder.

i just rang my grandad and he told me the place was on the way to his home town was, he said he was with my mum,grandma and my uncle christian, he said it was in the highlands he cant pin point the place but next time he goes up he will try and find the place again and let me know, just wondering has anyone know a major base in scotland like area 51?

With out knowing where and when it was, its very hard to say anyting at all, Did he tell you his home town?
Did he tell you when?

As I said before Glasgow and the highlands are two diffrent things and Scotland's countryside goes on for miles and miles in the highlands.

he said something like Loch Ewe or something i don't no really ill try and ask him more ill be posting my new thread on my dad its quite funny but strange.
