I doubt whether the 'unapproved' staff give a $%^& it's an aeroplane not exactly something to get all excited about!
If you are correct, this is a terrible indictment of the business today. This is an iconic aircraft in the mould of the 747 and Concorde. I would hope as many people as possible who work at the airport would be enthusiastic about it and want to look at it and know more about it. It certainly used to be the case. And I'm sure there will be lots of the public at and around the airport to see it.
I realise of course that it is an operational aircraft and access needs to be restricted. Pity that a test flight is not being made first so that more people could have a closer look.
