Spectators Balcony (Spotters Corner) If you're not a professional pilot but want to discuss issues about the job, this is the best place to loiter. You won't be moved on by 'security' and there'll be plenty of experts to answer any questions.

why are we despised?

Just happened to surf this subject to see what it was about. Very Interesting that folks gave "spotters" those associative names.
I really never thought of it before as in the states its sort of quiet when it comes to spotting. I met the first ones who were from the UK down at Mojave California. I have been flying for over 35 years and these folks knew more about planes than I did. Type model etc. Very interesting.
Along those lines there are lots of folks in the states who hunt crashes. Now that interests me. We have a lot of planes that have never been found, in fact in California alone it appears many hundred.
I have some websites for Historical wrecks if someone wishes to PM for them or my email is good......
