Will recent events result in the beginning of the end of the Police Authorities' ridiculous dash to helicopter ownership and pilot employment?
Think about it - had WMP not decided to buy their own aircraft and employ the pilots, they would, within a very short time following the incident, have been back in the air in a machine provided by their contractor.
No wonder the UEOs of Wiltshire, Strathclyde and a few others sleep easier at night.......
