Should A/C spotting enthusiasts be restricted and will they feel targeted by these curbs on there hobby, for the responsible among them I doubt they will, but for those that feel in two minds on the subject it should be pointed out that the use of photographic records of a location is rather a double edged sword, in the hands of those bent on chaos to further their twisted aims they can be a useful if not vital planning tool in ensuring there weapons are placed in the location that causes most physical and political damage and of course ensure they manage to escape the consequences of their actions while in the hands of the security services and the police they are a vital tool in tracking and prevention of such crimes.
Sadly in the case of Glasgow they were found wanting and I am sure efforts will be made after the fact too rectify this failure.
But to all those snappers in that area in the weeks prior too this event right up and including the day it may just be that you hold the key in that absent minded pikkie you took at Glasgow airport to locating those responsible as to be certain they were there in plain view for all to see.
So while a few restriction may be irksome to some of you, have quick scan through your shots and just maybe….?
