For anyone thats interested:

Heres a quick snap I took today whilst on my beat in Terminal 2 at Manchester Airport.

Note the tractor placed tactically behind the aircraft to block it in, therefore preventing any movement of it until outstanding airport debts are paid.

Judging by the news all other airports that have company aircraft positioned there are adopting the same tactics.




Or perhaps its to stop someone from nicking it!....it is Manchester after all

Gone are the days of the reciever walking up the front stairs and putting a symbolic chain and lock on the forward door


Shame to see another one go to the wall

How childish is that!
Makes me wonder how much thrust would be needed to get the way free...

Cheers,

Ah!!...... but it's symbolic like the piece of paper pinned by a law officer to the mast of a boat.

If you remove it or avoid it....looks like he cold turn left here......then you are in contempt of a court order and would be sent to bed early and forced to exclusively fly FS.X

There's nothing symbolic about the two bulldozer like vehicles in place in Glasgow. Mind you the airline are based in Edinburgh, so they're not taking any chances on the chancers.

Boy - there must be one or two tractor dealers near Heathrow hoping that BA goes t*ts up

Might be worth taking a punt on John Deere shares!

Made my day!
