I believe the radar coverage offered by Lossie and Kinloss is sufficient for the task. Whilst the primary radar is some 25nm away from INV, which would usually give you a poor base of radar cover, the fact that the terrain is so high in the area actually acts in your favour in this instance. Aircraft must fly above the lumps and therefore into coverage.
