I remember the morning that the police on the main gate at RAE Farnborough got suspicious about the amount of traffic leaving the establishment between 8 & 9AM so the next morning they closed the exit gate and nabbed about a hundred motorists who were using it as a shortcut to avoid the snarl ups in the town center. Since at that time the passes were green coloured they just held up a packet of Woodbines as they drove through the Pyestock gate. .
