Aren't the Police tied in to some sort of agreement - a "Framework document" I think they call it,
so that the warranty / maintenance comes as a package along with purchase of the aircraft ?
Does anyone know if any ( UK ) Police operator has ever bought a new aircraft from ECUK, PAS, or whoever, and then had the warranty work and maintenance ( during the warranty period ) carried out by someone they didn't buy it from ?
Is that how it works with the few Police operators that directly employ their own engineers ?
