Don't let this happen to you.

Be mindful that not all authorities in foreign lands take plane spotting lightly.

That article is dated 20th March 2010!

The Daily Mail must be getting short of news or can't invent anything.

That guy is Daft. Leave a Radio Scanner in the open and listen to air traffic and watching planes with his Bino.

It sure rings alarm bells.

In some countries, possession of a Radio Scanner is Illegal and can result in jail terms.

If he had connected a ear-phone and keep the radio scanner in his pocket - he would have enjoyed his hobby in the way he wanted.
