If the spotters want to go on base and take their staged pictures of aircraft, then expect to pay for it - hopefully some of the cash will go to all the folk on base who this inconveniences (pisses off!).
Most of the photo's they produce, whilst technically brilliant, are in terms of atmosphere and relevance, crap. Witness screw-loose's staged pic's of museum pieces cluttering up the RAF 100 year photo thread. A picture of a Cosford training airframe set against some of the real historical shots that are on that thread - no contest.
