And, if the Russians really wanted to know that, they have numerous ways and means of finding out, not excluding sending one of their embassy staff to stand at the end of the runway.
You know what I think of your opinion.

It is not "just that" which is of concern and you know it. It is "That" x 100 other jigsaw pieces + all the other little add-ons that get posted which build a one-stop shop for useful intel.

If a Station IntO says it is problematic, and you make your snide comments: Guess who has any credibility.

To Geriaviator I doubt it will be stopped but it can be reduced. If you speak to the Admins of the various sites they "get it" and posting is tempered accordingly. Problem is, we are up against those too blinkered to see the risk, no matter how small it may be..
