Spottie meets customs
I forgot to add to the list that I brought back some parts of an Instrument Landing System that got hit by a DC-10 and were full of mud.
At this point, the customs guys got rather interested in the contents of my bag, broke into it and gave me a grilling at LHR. In the last 1000 international flights through LHR and LGW I was never stopped once, but as soon as you get off the BOG they start to track you. Well done boys, reassuring at least.
The localiser antenna is being cleaned up and mounted for the office aircraft accident collection...
Happy landings and keep out of the ILS antennae!
