In an effort to beat the weather and try and improve the shots that I took at Leeds Bradford Airport yesterday I returned this evening. The weather was much better so I parked up in the same spot and awaited the next arrival.
I'd not been there long before a Police van approached and I was invited insided to discuss my intentions at the airport. After a few checks were made on my impecable credentials, a decent chat was had about the various laws of photography and the current 'climate', it was mutually decided that I should toddle off and seek permission from the Airport directly if I wanted to return to take pictures again.
Now, as the Policeman stated, I was doing nothing wrong and had not contravened any laws, but just due to current sensitivites, even on public ground near to an Airport, seeking permission from the Authorities is really a good idea and I would certainly recommend it. The Airport would then ensure that the Police patrol assigned to the Airport, knew exactly who was authorised to be taking photographs at the airport at any one time.
