gertrude, the layout just ain't like that at Barton!

Airside is not secure and cannot be made secure because there are other businesses on the field who have operated for years and will not be told what to do.

Barton's an original airfield from a time when pilots and groundies alike somehow (I really don't know how) had the sense to realise that noisy things with propellors on the end bit you. And pilots, strangely enough, somehow inherently knew that these strange creatures walking upright on 2 legs were called h-u-m-a-n-s, and were to be avoided.

It seemed to work. I can't understand why though
