The Moray Flying Club and the VGS were going to remain at Kinloss using the airfield anyway - question was, would the site be sold or used by MOD/Defence land, that would have decided what would happen to them in the future. For the immediate future they would have remained.

The situation with the emergency relief ground for Lossie aircraft came to the surface in the last few months. Despite everyone knowing the airfield was closing at the end of July out of the blue the airfield was needed by 1 Gp to act as an emergency airfield. As to what will happen to the airfield side of things when the as yet un-named army unit move in no-one knows. That could be the further work they talk about!
