Boris Johnson has arrived in Glasgow ahead of leadership hustings in Perth later today.
The MP stepped out of a helicopter at the Police Heliport in Govan on Friday afternoon.
He and fellow leadership contender Jeremy Hunt will face Scottish party members in Perth.
It is the latest in a series of events across the country which see the two candidates speak to local members and take questions from a host and audience.

He was pictured exiting the helicopter and reaching for a silver foil covered package.
Johnson is currently the front runner in the Conservative leadership race, and said he will make Britain "the greatest place on Earth" if he gains the keys to 10 Downing Street.
With some party members already reportedly having received their postal ballot papers - two days earlier than previously expected - Mr Johnson said he was "fighting for every vote".
"I'm taking nothing for granted," the former foreign secretary told the Daily Telegraph.
"It's time to drive for the line, keeping the ball at the back of the scrum. I'm fighting for every vote and campaigning flat out and will be from now until the end."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
