A Tall story at the Gibraltar Airport

Which sadly is true ...

In order to try and make life difficult at the Gibraltar airport, Franco, the Spanish dictator ordered a large transmitter mast for RNE to be erected as close as possible.

Some time passed, and everyone agreed to be friends and part of a new Europe, but they forgot to take the monument to his tantrum away.

Its still there in September 2004 when these pictures were taken,from the centre of the runway, and next to the site in Spain.
