I think dedicated spotter pens are an answer, That way these characters can do what ever it is they do without creating serious safety hazards/ getting under the feet of those who have work to perform or cause inconvinence to the travelling public , levy a fair charge, say a tenner a day, and everyones a winner
Whatever you charge some of these types will always try to avoid paying which is why robust action by the police is required to reinforce the point airports are not spotter playgrounds
walterthesofty / kevlarcarl / simonchowder / mutiple alias man, what's your beef?
What action upsets you so? Can you give an honest example of a real safety hazard that a spotter has caused recently? Most airports have crash gates well marked and Police patrols. The occasional blockage nowadays is just family and kids. Given your loathing of spotters, and your continued presence in Spotters Corner, one can only assume some trauma. Did mummy leave daddy, assuming you know him, for a spotter? Scarred you for life did it? You need to forgive heal and move on sir, you'll live longer. There, there!
