Had to help a RAF Plod doing a security walkround for a Royal Flight, opening panels etc, so he could peer in at all the gubbins looking for a round black ball marked bomb with a slowburn lit fuse coming out the top...

Stepping back he spies the tank access panels three quarters of the way up the port fin and announces he wishes to look in there, pointing out that no self respecting terrorist is going to bring his own hydraulic platform, defuel the tank, spend an hour plus removing the screws, plant his bomb, reseal and repanel the tank, then refuel it and slink off into the night, I then told him if he wished to peer in there then he is on his own..... ahhh what about that one he says pointing to a easy ground level access door and on we moved....
