Shy, why then do we have restricted airspace around prisons with Cat A prisoners, nuclear power stations and chunks of central London?
Why indeed?
The words 'stable door', 'horse' and 'bolted' spring to mind. In the case of prisons and central London, the 'powers that be' (ie Gov't/CAA) have to be seen to be doing something.
The restricted airspace around a prison isn't actually going to stop any further breakouts. Wires across any compounds ARE going to stop any further breakouts.
Which is the point that Shy was trying to make (I imagine).
