No it is not the norm. In fact the security officer tried to make my son delete pictures he took of planes from outside the airport from where we were staying. I am not deleting any.

Well if there aren't any signs stating the prohibition, politely ask the security officer to direct you to the rule/law stating the fact. Then again, that may lead to a baton to the head in Trinidad.

Actually pal, people do it without any issues. Some may get asked to stop, but it isn't something that is disallowed. Places even encourage it on the outsides. That is why they have plane spotters all over the world.

And for the backwards comment, I agree. This the airport, that has a sign saying "Airport Perimeter: No Tresspassing" Yet if you park your car on the GRASS near the fence, they come claiming you are being illegally parked and traspassing on their territory.

I once asked why I can't park here and I literally at my uncle's house just across the road (this is in 2006 mind you) and one officer's comment was and I quote:

"If the Prime minister or somebody important fly over and on the tarmac, you could drive up to the fence, take a gun and kill him. "

Mind you, Lighthouse Road (road behind at NP station) is One way in and One way out for cars... so why would I take my CONSPICUOUS car and park there to kill the prime minister.

Response?

" Cause it easy to do"

Then is when I pointed to ALL the 30 foot trees around the airport and said "there's a thing called SNIPERS"

Is logic you try and use on a Tobago Police?

[MISHI]

Not police: Airport Authority Personnel. They patrol the perimeter inside and out.

So I took some pics of a national security helicopter yesterday. I take pics of the Bristow ones all the time but I was a little afraid that a police car would pull up outside my house and rough me up.

If they wanted the area to be that secure they should relocate everyone along that road Mishi.. what's the difference between parking on one side of the road and the other for someone looking to shoot someone coming out of a plane? Or he meant as the plane was landing?

[Rooki3]

fellas aviation practises real strict & sometimes come across as unreasonable, not their fault, muslims cause that

^ The Big wigs did. The Attacks in USA just heightened it.
