Wycombe suffer from being at the 'bottom of the ladder' when recruiting ATCOs. Once upon a time when LTCC/LACC were at West Drayton, there was a ready supply of part timers keen to keep an ADC rating going instead of just TC or Area Radar, but with the move to Swanwick, this supply dried up.
Nowadays they suffer from people straight out of Global or other colleges getting jobs there, then being 'headhunted' as soon as they reach C of C standard by other airports who offer them sponsorship for APS ratings.
Probably Redhill suffers the same and indeed any other airfield which is ADC only or ADC/APP.
