No airport gain for NATS in Wales.

West Wales Airport (nee Aberporth) have their own APS Unit, providing surveillance services in the surrounding Danger Areas in order to fly Unmanned Aircraft Systems from West Wales Airport.

NATS provide a surveillance service (akin to an Area Radar Service) from MOD Aberporth under contract to QinetiQ, a mile or two up the road from the Airport offering a service to Unmanned Aircraft Systems and other things that need to be contained within Danger Areas over Cardigan Bay.

Due to the specialised nature of the NATS service provision, and its very low level of operations, doubt that it would be an initial posting for a new recruit.
