The name was purchased by Dale's and from about 1982 to 1991 bicycles were built to order by Dave Yates at M. Steel Cycles in England, and these are sometimes referred to as "English Scots". The name on the Dave Yates built bikes is "Flying Scot" whereas the Rattray bicycles were "The Flying Scot".
