RE: Airport Ground Operations - What goes on behind those NO ACCESS doors.
Just a stupid question: I imagine that there are things that cannot be said for security reasons, aren't there?

Not really, but I keep some things out for the same reason. Like transponder codes for emergencies.
Actually, all of the data is public. Airport charts and procedures. What is not public are the photos I have of airports around the world, taken from ramp side. Those are not public, as well as security procedures, which are under the protection of the Police or Gendarmerie or similar bodies around the world.
There are many failsafes and rows of protection, that even if you know everything it will still be impossible to do something. Its why instead of focusing on the airports, they run people over on the streets.
It's just like in case of a bear attack, you don't have to be the fastest, just not the slowest :)
Hey Alex, did fighter jets swing by the airport sometime? :-P I've read a whole review on the F14 Tomcat years back. It was superb. Who knows if it's still serving today, given the rate at which technology is spiking. lol...
I am not working IN the airport, although I'd wish :D
But I do get to see some airports in the world as part of my job, hopefully more this year.
Usually, fighter jets are not allowed in civil airports, but there are some exceptions.
For example, in the Bucharest Airshow of last year!
But i've been in Poland at their Academy and I've seen them actually training :P
So you are the one inside the missile? :D
HA! I like missiles as much as the next guy :D but I am totally against war and violence!
I see! Thanks for the long answer ;)
lolz...
It's official, my day's made!
:D
I am happy to have made your day!
Wait until I will talk about actual Air Traffic Control.
I hope I won't miss this post ;)
DING!
You made this way too easy :D
missed... (not credible I know)
I have actually read the Wikipedia about sgluons afterward :)
Great shmuck I was..
Thanks for educating me!
I can't find such a page. I am very curious. Can you please share the link? ;)
I am lazy so I went with the first result - Wiktionary @ https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/sgluon which says
"(physics) The hypothetical superpartner of a gluon." which made me go "hmm" and check out the gluon Wikipedia.
I had to reread what you have said on Discord since this definition sent me sideways. So yea, I had no idea it was not a supersymmetrical particle.
I remember having seen the "Down the Rabbithole" documentary when it launched, which was my first connection to Particle Physics. I still remember word by word what Hagelin said that he researched: "Supersymmetrical flipped SU5 grand unified field theory" I was like WTF, is that even real? I have a good memory of stuff and I then did the research myself. I was young, and I never revisited the documentary, but had my suspicions of its validity. It was close to "The Secret" so you can imagine the need to document claims :))
I am always open to new stuff, wish I had more time to indulge myself in all.
