Blimey! I take it the ac was in the area anyway

Busy night over Plymouth for police helicopter | This is Plymouth

Then again, a 20 minute transit flight to search for a misper and on top of that a garden search, will become more of the norm

THE crew of the Devon and Cornwall police helicopter had a busy night over Plymouth on Saturday.

The crew located a woman in the Keyham area of the city. Police had been looking for her during the course of the evening due to what they described as 'considerable concern' for her welfare.

Just afterwards, the crew helped officers on the ground in the Plymstock area who were looking for people wanted for theft.

A force spokesman said: "These were two great results highlighting close work between officers in the helicopter and officers on the ground."

The helicopter's powerful Nightsun searchlight was used during the two operations and the spokesman continued: "On both occasions, the helicopter Nightsun played a vital role in pinpointing specific locations on the ground."
... A busy night !!!
