Spotting at Ramstein

Post by Ranger »

Last weekend I have been spotting at Ramstein. On both days we had a hassle with the Polizei. We were at spot 5 of the Scramble-guide in the woods beginning rwy26. Some people were too close to the fence with a stepladder while the Security Police was passing on the perimeter-road. They stopped and ordered us to clear the fence. They stayed there and waited for the Polizei to arrive. This is a standard procedure for thema. The Polizei came and told us to stay away from the fence. They also told us they are getting tired to come to the woods everytime someone is to close to the fence with a stepladder and is thinking of measures of removing us all there forever if this goes on.
So trying to keep this beautiful spot open for us for spotting for the future I urge everyone going there to stay well clear of the fence, especially with a stepladder.

Cheers,
Ranger
