Come on England

To the best of my recollection, none of the spectator facilities at MAN were closed at that time.

I might be wrong here but Iam sure that the top of the MSCP eas closed for a while,I remmeberbeing moved on by ths idiot of a security guy.
Like I said not sure if it was after 9/11 but I know it was closed for a while

I was just going to say, just because the Scottish Parliament is in Edinburgh, doesn’t mean that is a need for sky marshalls, although it is potential target.

Is it mainly the American carriers that use sky marshalls, or do UK airlines use them as well…

I know this sounds harsh, but I don’t think we will ever beat terrorism now, tbh. Even if we find or kill Mr Bin Laden or other key figures of terrorist groups, it will not stop people from being radicalised into believing that they are fighting for a just cause…

One simple solution that might have an impact would be the withdrawal from Iraq, but I don’t think that that is a wise or possible move at the moment.

I have to agree with Cloud 9, in the fact that we will never beat terrorists,there is always going to be somebody that does not like what somebody else has said or done.There is always going to be 10 other’s to take over when one of these so called leader’s gets killed, who will promise to do bigger and badder things than the one before.
The War on Terrorism has always been there it is just that Mr Bush used 9/11 to invade Afganistan and then the second Gulf War , now the debate on if it was for Oil or to get rid of Sadam will rage for a very long time.
IMHO the War was wrong but getting rid of Sadam was the right thing to do.
If we and the Americans pulled out of Iraq now , there will be a civil war that will suck in the rest of the gulf, then Russia and China and before long World War 3.
The point I was making is that no matter what we do ,put Air Marshells on every flight or what every else ,there is always going to be that one person that nobody will suspect that has a bomb in his shoe or watch or where ever.

I shot the MYT A330 from the beer garden at the Airport Hotel and the other two from the nearby bridge over the railway.

Apparently the latter spot is “too near the runway”, a concept that will perplex anyone who is familiar with the beer garden. 😉

I would of thought that the beer garden was in fact closer to the runway that the bridge was :confused:

I argree with the MD11.
My fav is the 146 love it in those cols 😎

Hmmm… nice work. 🙂

Why was there a Pulkovo Tu154 in Birmingham?

Pity I didnot know about thatI would of made the trip down the M6

Paul 🙁

I believe most of the houses there are derilict, so maybe yo can ask the council for a quick sale :diablo:

You could not be further from the truth,there are quite a few house’s in that street,and I dont think any are derilict,in fact further down the street there are some very nice houses. There is also a very nice pub.
