Thanks for the info, BingBongBoy, Petrus.

DYKWIA, the Renessaince hotel is usually where I check in for the pictures and I appreciate your suggestion. ^

It is more than that! If you had worked a little and seen the guide, there are other places about which it gives a warning, and they are not at crash gates. So the guide is hinting at something more, than just a dumbed down answer of my question.

Th guide says: Airport Car Parks
I used to use the airport short stay car parks to spot, but since security has rose the BAA security move you on VERY quickly.
