Reminds me of when I stayed at my mates once, we were like 16/17. His Mum had brought some fella back from The Showboat, was getting rattled like, he turned the DVD we were watching upto like volume 68 on his TV, even then all you could hear was headboard banging like, he started to come up with some mad story about the pipes, and UU fixing it, crazy.
Now, these scanners, what the ... ?
Generally, you see folk at the aviation viewing centre with 'em, I think if your really lucky you can listen into the police with them. I'm pretty certain they don't listen into the RFL. They allow normal folk like us, to listen to air traffic control communications with pilots, NOT, Cummings & Ganson chats.
Pilot : "This is Speedbird1364, approaching 7,000ft, ETA 6 Mins."
Tower : "Speedbird1364, continue approach, descend to 6,000ft and hold. Await communication."
Pilot : "Roger that ... "
Ganson : "Hold, hold, hold ..."
Pilot : " ....Erm ..."
Ganson : " Hold, <whistle>, come here maarrRRhhHHt, captain, here."
Pilot : "Captain, It's not a ship d!ckhead .."
Ganson : " I've told him too hold, he's going to early, next one's going, sort it out."
Pilot : "Sorry Sir."
