No. I said the United Kingdom does not have 24/7......
Hands up the last one to fly to Lerwick or the Isle of Man most recently..... hmnn well that will be a no then.
So I guess that 'fact' stays.
The 'fact' is that if a request was made for a 24hr unit to deploy to Lerwick or the Isle of Man, and the criteria were met, an ac would be deployed from wherever an ac was available !
As far as I am aware both Strathclyde and PSNI operate 24/7 which sort of covers up there, while the rest of us cover the remainder of the 'United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland'.
