Heathrow Director, don't take it personally. I was merely pointing out that I see no harm in someone listening into ATC frequencies.
I couldn't care less if someone listens to me.
I'll take you at your word that it is illegal to listen in on ATC, but it doesn't stop high street shops from selling scanners.

I haven't disclosed the colour of my underwear either, doesn't mean I'm not wearing any.

Jerricho, I heard a story of some ATCO's from SCATCC who were spotting at Chicago on just after 9/11 who's hotel room was raided by the FBI.
