You’ve probably heard about this already, but thought I’d give you a ping anyway. (update to story, terminal J evacuated)

Well.... `tarmac’ was the first airport word I could think of that means “unauthorized entry prohibited”.

Tank fuel farms, by their dangerous nature, MUST be isolated from the rest of the aerodrome environment.

But... shouldn’t that make them easier to secure? Fenced in and guarded? The bowsers don’t even get inside the TF perimeter; they fill up at remote pumps.

Worse than sabotage, I smell P.C. coverup.
