This is relevant to the incident that I described at T1 at JFK last Sat. Not only were my 2 friends told they were banned from the airport by an agent at T1, she also told them to "Get a life"! She said that she sees them all the time at the terminal so they should "Get a life". Next time, she threatened to call the "cops".Again, they were not doing any photography, had no scanners or binoculars. They are aviation enthusiasts who like to "hang-out" at terminals and watch plane movements. They both recently graduated from Vaughn College of Aeronautics so they are naturally interested in the hobby. They both have applied for employment in the aviation industry so they have "time on their hands". Sadly, that statement, "get a life" represents how most people feel about aviation enthusiasts. My friends call me a "nut case" and even a "Bird watcher". How do your friends feel about you when you say you are spending the day watching planes? They cannot understand the satisfaction we get from plane spotting.
