Funny that considering that initially I believe that the user of the based aircraft wanted the signs placed at the hold but the highland council said no and that they had to be placed upon the shed where landing fees should be paid. I believe that there have been at least 3 or 4 dasors submitted this summer due to aircraft infringing the danger area. At least one of these could quite easily have ended up being a near miss with a tornado if it had not been for the military controllers actions. Maybe it would be a good idea for the highland council to ask the military to log all movements in and out of Dornoch for statistics purposes and to compare against the landing fees register. The sign can't be too bad an idea as I believe that one of the other local airfields as asked to have similar produced for display.
