Bristol Spotters enlisted against terrorism

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/bristol/6491261.stm
Police have enlisted the help of plane spotters to safeguard Bristol Airport from criminal and terrorist activity.
Under the new Airport Watch Scheme, police are hoping to harness aircraft enthusiasts' expert knowledge and enthusiasm to add to airport security.
Insp Chris Ware said the spotters would not be used to replace airport security teams or police.
A meeting was held at the airport on Saturday where police briefed enthusiasts on what to look out for.
Will we see similar 'cooperation' at other airports?
