Police Civilianisation of air support

[B.U.D.G.I.E]

Dear paarmo

You seem to have things a little out of context. Yes, everyone starts out as a civilian then they join a disciplined organization. That might be police, mil, ambo. Whichever. Opportunity’s are given to them based on experience levels and qualifications. So

Ambo - you don’t start giving drugs or sticking needles in people until you have done the basics, learnt from experience, passed some exams get recommended and show yourself to be competent at the role.

Military - (Pilot) You join at the bottom, get some experience, do some exams get some experience and get recommended for the role that then takes years of training.

Police - You join at the bottom, pound the streets, deal with criminals, get used to how criminals think and what they will do next ( They are all creatures of habit) Get some experience get recommended, do some exams and show that you are competent at the role.

Now the difference with the way police do things is that is they advertise for a police job any one inside the police can apply. So all of the above apply. However if they advertise for a civilian post it goes into the national press. Therefore little jonny with no qualifications who is currently shelf stacking at Tescos ( other retail jobs are available) can apply and if he can pass the entrance exam and talk enough guff for 20 mins could get the job.

Which would you rather work with and put in charge of a police forces most expensive resource.
