In both Germany and the UK, I saw ordinary police carrying submachine guns outside the airport. (The UK surprised me.) Again, the 80s.
Has that changed?
No. At least at Munich airport, there are one or two policemen with submachine guns right behind the security checkpoints.
I think I have seen one at Heathrow recently, too.
This actually makes me feel safer.
