Good to see some healthly debate... again about an age-old subject!!
Maybe SACL have mis-understood me... I take 'catalogue' photos for my own personal collection. I have no commercial interest at all, or even gained commercially in the last 13 or so years of enjoying my hobby. I consider the fees ridiculous and would rather risk 10 mins at the GA to get a few Biz-jets than pay $XXX for the time.
Hi Morris, I made it quite clear that by 'terminal', I meant inside from the 'public areas' - behind the glass - definitley not airside. I also made it quite clear that at no stage do I wish to go airside at all... as far as I am concerned, SACL have provided sufficient landside areas for me to get the photos that I want.
My original letter to SACL was as a result of an incident at Cairns Airport where the 'current security climate' excuse was used to suggest that for future visits to ANY airport, I seek written approval from the relevant Authority to take photos at that airport... This is the first time I have done this and look what happens...
