I wouldn't keep pulling your hair out XP you don't have a lot!!

Did the fence go up when they opened the WAVE or was it before?

If my ,admittedly dodgy, memory serves me correctly the fence went up well before WAVE opened.

I have a shot of an F15 landing over a brand new fence in 1993. I think that the WAVE enclosure was not open then.
