Has to be Coventry. There are at least two or three movements every…. say every week. The terminal facilities are out of bounds, if you sit in your car in the lane you are occasionally asked to move on. I was asked a few months ago by a VERY intelligent Police Officer what I was doing there. The binoculars, scanner and camera might have given him a clue. I resisted the temptation to ask if he was a detective. He listened to my explanation of what I was doing then spent the next 20 minutes driving up and down the lane glaring at me each time he passed. I thought it only polite to wave each time he passed. This seemed to have the effect of making his face very red. When I left I thanked him for his diligence, telling him that I felt very safe while he was around and that the high visibility patrols he and his colleagues were carrying out would be very effective in ensuring the safety of the airport.

As for favourites? LHR when the Queen’s Building was open was the best of my limited experience. Loved that place. Now it’s of at Hatton Cross and Myrtle Avenue and the visitors centre is a dead loss. BHX isn’t too bad but the outdoor area needs much work. The new car park is great though, right at the end of 33. Currently, MAN has to be the best. Good level surfaces with adequate ramps, good, clean toilets, plain but hot and filling food and a decent shop. Just £3 at weekends and £2 in the week has to represent the best value.
