I bet PAS are really chuffed with the BBC. We all know that aircraft go tech but a large portion of joe public won't see it that way.
To fill a large part of the program with engineers working on the aircraft that the public have just been told cost them £4 million whilst offenders are seen to be getting away, probably didn't show Police ASU's in the best light (902 reliability debates aside). Especially when coupled with a narrative explaining that the aircrew didn't know where they were and couldn't effectively direct ground resources. We all become 'unsure of position' at times. Balanced reporting? I dunno'.
I suppose we take a risk that the editing will be kind to us when we get involved with TV and I think that most producers are responsible but there's always the chance of a bloody nose. I'm sure HEMS feel the same following 'Golden Hour'.
Did that turn into a rant? Sorry!
