News reaches me a bit slower than the rest of you who may know that Leuchars is to be closed.
It seems the Typhoons of 6 Squadron will go to Lossiemouth while the closed Leuchars (and Kinloss) will be used by the army.
It's being sold as a 'positive' but as an ex-servicemen points out a lot of money has been spent upgrading Leuchars in recent years to accommodate the Typhoon; presumably this will all have to be spent again to fit-out Lossiemouth.
