asked the Secretary of State for Defence what areas in Scotland are used for training of pilots from countries which are not members of NATO; and what countries use the facilities.

Pilots of foreign air forces undergoing flying training with the RAF make use of the same areas in Scotland as do RAF pilots on similar training courses or sorties. Pilots from India and Ecuador have been stationed with the RAF in Scotland and have trained there in 1979. Pilots from other non-NATO countries, based elsewhere in the United Kingdom, may have flown into Scotland occasionally on training flights, but it would require disproportionate effort to confirm this.
