Heathrow question

But woe betide anyone who stops there to watch the planes - as we found out the police turn up in minutes and move you on with no messing about. Seems a bit OTT since any terrorist who has a rocket launcher (which I guess is what they're worried about) would do it from the nearby woods anyway but I guess paranoia is the order of the day now. The preferred location for lobbing things at the airfield used to be the hotel carparks north of Heathrow, but they allowed industrial development on that side of the field which kind of blocks the view. I thought the only time a mortar bomb actually landed inside Heathrow, it was close to T4, on the south side of the airfield. I left from the adjacent gate the very next day. |
