Skyhigh So if police pilots aren't instrument trained, then they can't fly in all weathers am i right ?
Weather limitations help but if you can't see the ground you can't see the villain/incident.


CK I could go on but I would bore you. As for night Ops well that could be solved overnight if we made all HEMS flights a part of 'Government Operations' and took them away from JAROPS 3. There is nothing special about Police Helicopters, they just have the benefit of the POM. Don't get me going on that one.......

Not ALL Air Ambulances have FLIR and a Nitesun for Ad Hoc landings..
