Same at my work at PIK - there's a huge

sign on the side of the test cell a couple of hundred yards from both runways, and clearly visible from the bybass.

Just had a look at Edinburgh Airport on Google Maps and at least it is clear that the aeroplane taking off is not a missle. Not the same detail for my home area though

We used to live on the birmingham airport flight path and me and my brother (when were were somewhat younger!) wrote "bum" in big letters in poppy seeds in the cornfield. Pity we couldn't see the results properly a few weeks later.
