Re: Scottish rocket company...
Rockets are best launched from as near the equator as possible - Scotland is a long way from it.
Even further than the Isle of Wight where a lot of UK rocketry was based at one time. https://www.scienceabc.com/eyeopener...e-equator.html Also Skyora CEO 'Volodymyr Levykin' has a strong Russian sound to it.

Re: Scottish rocket company...
there are enough 'rockets' in Scotland without adding more.
