One question. Is is mentioned in the guide Block 94 crash gate: A real no-no, the Police will see you off from here quicker than anything! If you dare to venture into here.

Why is that? Is planespotting illegal in the UK?

No, not illegal... But maybe because it is an emergency access gate to the airfield and you may be obstructing it with vehicles and people... that may be why.
