Inverness Airport Expansion Plan - Light Aircraft Out?!

[Slopey]

I received a heads up on this from the Insch Flying Group of which I'm a member - apologies if it's be mentioned already, but I did'nt see anything on the search:

You may have read in this month's Pilot magazine that Inverness' Airport 'Master Plan' for the future of that airport envisages moving light aircraft away to make way for scheduled services. The Plan is available at

I quote, in the short term - 2006 to 2010

Light Aircraft – growth in scheduled, executive and freight traffic
will ultimately require light aircraft to relocate away from Inverness
as has been the case at other expanding regional airports.

People are invited to email their comments/objections by January 19th.

A typically unimaginative and flawed attitude to light aircraft. Ignorance is the problem here, together with the fact that HIAL aren't a proper commercial organisation but just another bloated tax-subsidised quango - third raters.
