Not sure whether the Lossie PSR currently has line of sight to any Wind Farms, but I know there is a lot of planned development in that region that will be visible to radar.
Lossie did see them 2 years or so ago when a new load went up - I was VFR being checked out on a new type & Lossie Radar were quite grateful for me confirming that the popup intermittent contacts in my position were turbines not a dodgy transponder/worse :)

Radar head situated within AD, noted scanner turning but don't know at what stage of operation it's at yet.

New Radar Approved.
 
It's worth bringing this thread back up again to announce that Inverness have been granted regulatory approval for their new toy - (Thales Star 2000 PSR and RSM970S SSR.)

Hats off to them; they did it. Inverness now one of a select few UK aerodromes using Mode S. :D

Good job - now they just need to learn to configure the thing properly. I can't wait for the first IC code conflict.......

In all seriousness, well done Inverness. Anyone know if Newquay or Belfast City got their ones up and running yet?
