UKpaxman, I fully agree, the closure of SCS would be very bad news for Shetland. Having two large airfields on one relatively small Island is quite unique in Scotland, and to lose one would be a major blow.
Yes you would hope that the airfield operator and the one main airline would work together to come up with a solution, but as we both know the 'organisations' involved in these kind of decisions can rarely find their a**e with both hands!
I have no doubt you're right, the investment was made with the intention of attracting back the lost business of the oil flights, along with planning for future regional aircraft developments.
Lets hope they make the right decision!
