Probably check out 126.900am for Dundee airport And 124.500am for Tay low sector air traffic to begin with.
You can never have enough radios!

Hi
I had that scanner as my first scanner that i got like 15 years ago but has long since gone :-(. It doesn't cover airband. You should try marine band freqs like Aberdeen Coastguard on 156.0000 & 156.8000. I live in Edinburgh so not got any freqs for Dundee. Forth Road Bridge use 453.8250 but not sure if you will hear them.

Go here:

http://spectruminfo.ofcom.org.uk/spectrumInfo/licences

Search between 68 and 470 MHz (or whatever range your scanner covers), zoom in on your area, draw a box around your area using the "select area" button, and 'View results on a map" not the list of frequencies otherwise you'll be there for weeks…

Tell us what range your scanner covers and we'll tell you what you can't get.

So basically no airband (VHF or UHF), no band 3, and 5k steps are a nuisance because you'll be searching 2.5 times slower than you need to, and will be a bit off freq for 50% of channels.
