Mark,I think that if the enthusiasts did not take these pictures as a record then nobody would bother,I always go back to the very first flight of the Whittle engined Gloster E28/39,the authorities never considered it important enough to send along a photographer,guess who took the valuable historic footage we see today ? well it was an ordinary enthusiast who knew better,thank goodness that he had the foresight to do so.
