Red face

I too am distinctly worried about the potential repurcussions of this. :eeek: The junk mail I can handle (send back the pre-paid envelopes stuck to a brick) but its pretty obvious which planes are owned by individuals, companies or groups, and as has already been pointed out, the use of a scanner by anyone with a modicum of aviation knowledge could easily elicit large windows of opportunity ("G-XXXX cleared to far off destination via...") Previously I had only thought of those that might have watched the local airfield....
Didn't know the CAA gave this information out over the telephone, but I doubt someone with criminal intentions is going to write to the CAA asking for addresses
