hmm....

But, the building was made of glass so it would not have bounced off.

Alan, risk assesment concludes an assesment of the area, location and usage, and I dont think the people at that GA airfield in Germany were expecting to be an international news report coz some freak of nature guy stole one of their aircraft! It can happen anywhere, so I feel all places should be on their guard to an extent to which is neccersary for that area...as you say....'risk assesment'.

The nonsense I have read (as subject matter, not posters, please not) over airport security makes me sick. Reading about crews who have had to take skirts off, and the entire of the pax walking through when the pilots have an axe quite happily located at the front of the aircraft!! Madness...I think, along with the rest of the SANE world, that it should be the other way round, but crews still get a check, as they can be immitated...fair enough.

Priorities and sensibility are the key to good security and that is what is lacking.
