This section of the site represents a long and exciting research project into what can initialy appear to be a run down and disused RAF station in a remote part of Scotland. It is only when one looks deeper into the history of the base, that the fascinating "truth" unfolds.

The irony is, that the truth regarding RAF Machrihanish, and past activities remains unclear. Many of the details to surface around the base are rumours or hearsay, but does that make then untrue? Often people use the line "prove it happened." I tend to take the approach of "prove it didnt happen."

At no point in time do I claim to know everything about RAF Machrihanish, nor do I proclaim that all the stories and rumours on this site are true. The site is a compilation of some hard facts, speculation and the best images currently available in the world.

The research is on going, and we always welcome information in any shape or form, and from any source. Feel free to get in touch if you can contribute in any way. We are particularily interested in hearing from ex service personnel who were stationed at the base during the 80's as this seems to have been a busy time at the base, during the height of the cold war.

A huge selection of High Resolution images are available upon request. Due to recent incidents of my images appearing else where without permission, the images shown here are only small low resolution samples. With recent media interest in the Black World and some rather poor information being contained within, contact by the media regarding Machrihanish is more than welcome.
