NOTES: In 1933 the Scottish Motor Traction Co. Ltd. decided to promote their own 'Air Circus' operation, calling it "Scotland's Own Air Circus".  As far as can be seen, this operation only lasted for a few days over the 1933 August Bank Holiday, visiting three venues:

MUIRTON FARM, Lossiemouth      August 29th and 30th

BROADLEY FARM, Nairn              September 1st

DORNOCH LINKS, Dornoch          September 2nd


If anybody can kindly offer advice and information, this will be much appreciated.
