#StayAlertControlTheVirusSaveLives

Today at 10.00 spotters had parked a car and a high sided van on the grass verge as close to the runway landing lights below the fence as they possibly could. This inconsiderate act of stupidity is not only a hazard to aircraft, crew and passengers but also to themselves. It would not be the first time an aircraft's wheels have taken the fence out. Please do NOT obstruct the end of the runway and park safely. Ed.
