Good Morning People,
I hope I will not offfend, but as one who gives monthly to the local Air Ambulance funds,and as some one who has a connection with Helios I cannot understand why we in the UK give Gov funding thru the Police budget system to allow the Police effective random use, forgive that word Random for we as Joe pub never see or hear why the Police Helio was buzzing round (unless its to show car chases on the TV)all we are told is that the Helio has arrested two "Blaggers"
well it seems hard to see how, when the most of the time the poilce Helio never lands, only at the most unusual scene of crime! but the Hems Helio has to be funded thru public and Corporate gifts, I know that I am sticking my neck out, but it seems that despite the " GOlden Hour" ability of the Hems Helio's the Gov both Lab/con by their funding only of Police Helio's are seeming to be grossly unfair in backing Heli'o for high profile in crime , and ignoring the desparate needs of ill and seriously injured people, My sons life was saved by the ability of the local hems Helio team( he broke his back in an aviation incident) it pains me to think had it not been for the AA and public donations that Helicopter would not have been available, the way to look at this is to ask who is more important, a crim
in a stolen vehicle, or a seriously injured child/man/woman , lets see what some of the Police pilots think, for they are the only Gov funded Pilots in touch with every day happenings, My Regards
