At Inverness recently and noticed a significant amount of ground handling equipment owned by Dalcross Handling. Anyone know who these guys are?

They are ex BA INV guys!

When they were shafted by BA, they set up the ground handling and bought some equipment off BA at a discounted price!

Well done them! Do you know how they're getting on, and do they offer the full handling service?

Think Swissport UK - this was how they started.
Ex BA staff at NCL formed North East Aviation, this became GroundStar and then Swissport UK.
At least one of the original ex BA staff went off with a big fat cheque when 3i invested to form GroundStar.

Good luck to the guys & gals in INV.
