Unfortunately any expansion often seems to breed 'shiny asses', it is a fact of life. RDM, though have given PAS a much looser rein than Bombardier and for them police aviation might just as well been a tin of baked beans, as long as it made a profit. Any expansion often leads to employees becoming a number rather than an individual. It will be a shame if PAS goes that way as previously it was one of its strenghs as well as flexibility.
