ORAC - AOSNI (as it was then) moved from Pitreavie when it closed to Leuchars. IIRC the first 'solution' was a One Star AOSNI and a Gp Capt OC Ops - that was a functional shambles so they finally settled on One Star AOS and Stn Cdr plus an SOP OC Ops. I suppose they could add another one star to the redundancy list but I woudn't bet on it.
Regarding the runway - I hope they keep it as there's a lot of airspace between the cables at Leeming (limited hours) and Lossie.
