In re the "US Warplanes over Scotland" matter, I did receive a reply to the email I sent to the Scottish Ban the Bomb people. I asked "Is this true or a hoax." Their response:
"Thanks to everyone who has been responding to the newsflash from local people about aircraft movements over the Scottish Highlands between Saturday 25th - Tuesday 28th October. We've had a lot of response and general information from activists in the US, as well as elsewhere, adding to the picture. Some more of the detail that has come from the Highlands tells us that the aircraft involved were probably C5 Galaxy Transporters (my italics). These are enormous transport aircraft, which can be used in the large-scale movement of troops and/or equipment. We are continuing to investigate and monitor and all information is welcome.
