I would advise NOT hyolding breath for any good for the spotter to come out of this...
Unfortunately these "schemes" are always one way traffic.. the police realising that a spotters eyes are a handy tool to help them, and offering false promises of pushing for better spotters facilities. Same mince happened at GLA about 4 years waiting on the promised mound of dirt near the GAT.. in fact the only occurence at GLA has been the long established mound at 05 hold being fenced off.
Sorry to be a sour puss, just remember getting all excited myself after spotters meeting with the airport operators:mad:

-One funny thing about Newcastle was if you stopped until th light started fading in the car parks near the Nature reserve, you had to beware of the night time carpark enthusiasts arriving, if you know what i mean:eek:

OK so shout me down if you want , but I dont want to be vetted just so that I can spot planes.
I have more than enough ID to produce and have to be vetted for my job , so why should I have to be for my hobby.
What about the familys that want to go to the airport for a couple of hours in the sun on a weekend.
Can you imagine what would happen at the AVP at Manchester if everybody had to be vetted before they could get in.
Sorry I think this is a silly idea.
