Scottish Airports Corporate Tartan Tartan Number: 2510. Earliest known date: November 1988 An archetypal Kinloch Anderson blue design. Scottish Tartan Society notes say that Percy Pilcher (an early aviation pioneer 1866 -1899) had connections to the Gunn tartan (his mother was a Robinson). The design is based on that sett using the colours of the British Airports Authority with the purple line added to represent the Scottish thistle.
