Lookleft,
As far back as the 1960s, DCA "enforcement" was referred to as the "Airstapo", particularly by ATC personnel, it ain't new.
Among various associations, over the years there has been no shortage of examples of "enforcement" behavior that, to say the least, lacked procedural fairness, the usual process was to "know" the victim was guilty, with actual legal standard of proof regarded as an unnecessary impediment to summary conviction.
How does the saying go?? "Give a little man a little power".
Sunfish is spot on with his concerns.
Tootle pip!!
