For me it was the first time they had such a problem with me being there. They said that they can't forbide me to take pictures of aircraft in the air or watch with some bino's, but after a 30minutes discussion they promised me to keep coming back and check me out whenever they saw me with a camera or my bino's. They even wanted my home adress and telephone number, so I expect at least a christmas card and a phonecall when it's my birthday..... But after all I read almost all aircraft and stayed for another 3 hours with no trouble at all.andel wrote:So in the back of a USAF police car !!

But after all the only thing they say that they were not happy that I was there, but that they couldn't send me away.Richard from Rotterdam wrote:where were you exactly when this happened? You must have been on base somewhere, as the US police, as far as I know, do not have any jurisdiction outside the military property.
