I'm back

Cleveland,Humberside and all the other little places where 'Silsoe Sid' wants to
go on another 'mission' need grounding.

Time to take on board the rational arguments of Props stopped and Lynx no more.

Now before the Coconutter and Silsoe try their bully boy tactics I'll explain
my police air operation experience.
When they were wee boys in their prams I had my aircraft parked next to Julian Verity's sole B206 at Cardiff airport. Mid 1980's and police operations were ad hoc.I had quite a few jolley's with Julian in the days before he moved to Tremorfa.They were BBC and not police paid trips.

In those days South Wales police would only hire a helicopter when they had justify it unlike today when Silsoe will get airborne for another stolen car or some drunken phone call saying Mr Coconutter has not come home and is missing.
(Only to appear next morning when he reveals he crashed out on his
mates sofa and he has a head like a coconut).

In the mid 1990's I was a BBC senior producer in the midlands and was involved in producing a programme that involved the Leicestershire police
ASU. From my experience this has to be the joint force model.
Taxpayers can see why and where the helicopter is used on a daily basis.

There are quite a few older pilots that supply paid advice to MP's while you just want to burn more turbine time.
Theresa May knows the scams and the waste of money on 'training' etc that
goes on.
Wake up and smell the coffee Silsoe.
The writing is on the wall.
