I know its unusual for me...... but a slightly positive slant of NPAS and what they now do.
Recently at Schiphol Airport, Amsterdam I ran an annual aviation event. During the proceedings the Netherlands Police gave details of their operations which are rightly seen as first class.
What was clear from the numbers presented though was that the Dutch fly far less than NPAS and that the police and public expectation was at a level far below that NPAS inherited.
All I can say is that I hope that the NPAS management do not have a desire to reduce their service to the level of many air units on the European mainland.
