How many police forces in the UK could afford their own helicopter or plane in 2021 ?
I noticed that Scotland have one police helicopter. How much does it cost to run that operation each year, and is it 24/7 ?
There is a wiki site about police aviation, but no mention of how much it costs to run an air unit in the UK each year?
