As no one would tell me about this air worthiness certificate or whatever it is called , I have done some research.
Civilians train the Police as air observers.
Civilians check that the Police are operating safely and correctly in accordance with their licence.
Civilians drive the aircraft.
Civilians maintain the aircraft.
Civilians direct the aircraft to jobs.
Civilians co ordinate the ground response.
You were all once civilians.
You will all become civilians once again.
Yet you are resistant to civilians sitting alongside you and doing an observers job.
I think that you should have a long hard look at your prejudices and at least think about civilians as human beings as you are yourselves.You are not supermen, but highly trained Police Officers who should be policing and not flying.
