Oban, Coll, Colonsay and the Out of Hours Permt

Just had a call from Oban Airport. No further OOH Permits will be issued to any aircraft owned by a Limited Company because '...they might be used for commercial purposes...'.

This essentially closes Coll and Colonsay to any aircraft owned by a limited co except for the few minutes a day the locations are manned.

This would seem to be closing places down and reducing revenue (no more landing fees and permit fees) but I'm sure A&BC have their motives.

Anybody got any more gen on this?
