No problems at the Ash path fence this afternoon at around 17:30 - the policing was very good , firm but fair.

The only problem I had was that I couldn't see neither the Polish B738 nor the Brazilian A319

We parked in the Novotel and then walked under the 04 approach on the pavement adjacent to Long Border Road as far as the trees. The police were more than happy for us to continue to walk along the fence line up to the Diamond hangar. The only warning given was to watch out for the rabbit holes! We were able to see virtually everything that was parked north side apart from Nigerian.

He may well have come on Singapore Airlines as per the request from HMG to use commercial flights.
