It's fair to say that very few ATSUs in the bearpit that UK ATC provision has become have the resources and knowledge to compile, submit and manage a CAS application. They're too busy controlling! But HIAL is publicly-owned, and if their owners the Scottish Exec are so keen to throw taxpayers money at Ryanair, Emirates, Delta etc in order to subsidise business travellers and Michael O'Leary's pockets, one would imagine that their officials might regard the 100% funding of a CAS application as a sensible contribution to the safety of the public who they are encouraging - paying! - to travel by air. CAS at Inverness has been under discussion for YEARS. What have they been doing?
