Almondbank is a large village in Perth and Kinross, Scotland. The Defence Aviation Repair Agency(DARA) site at Almondbank has been a major employer in the community for many years providing essential support to the British Armed Forces. The Decision by the UK government in early 2008 to take the site (and its counterpart at Fleetlands,Gosport) out of direct MOD control by doing a conditional sell-off to Canadian firm Vector Areospace was a controversial one and there are concerns about the future of DARA.
