It'll be interesting to see how this plays at my home airport-VPS- a military airfield from which the local county leases X number of civilian sir slots per day and some land at the end fo the bigger runway for he civilian air terminal. There have been a few times over the years when we've actually been told to go shades down for takeoff or landing because the Air Force had something sitting out on the apron that, while not a Top Secret aircraft or other item, was something the DoD didn't want pictures of all over the internet of just yet.
