That is why today's announcement was the only sensible one. Lossie has plenty of space. In the late 70s it had 36 Jaguars and the TWCU and that was before the HAS sites were built. More recently 3 operational and one double sqn OCU of Tornados. Leuchars was always limited by its lack of real estate squeezed between the Eden Estuary and Earlshall Castle. After the loss of Kinloss, Moray would have been devastated if Lossie was also to go.
