FYI Cattivo, I actually took that pax trip while I was holding at Lossie for a 7 week stint. Not a long time I think you will agree, but long enough to get to know a little of the area.... and while the natural scenery was suberb, the only thing the Lossie/Kinloss area had going for it was Inverness airport and the A9 southbound.

I don't see the value of keeping open a single-issue station like Kinloss when it's raison d'etre consists of the rotting shells of Russian submarines, tied up at Murmansk. (And are they a threat now?)

(Oh alright then, long-range SAR cover as well.)
