TC :
Where's it mention Air Support, then?
There's a bit in the 8th April BBC News story, which Sid didn't include, that says :
Both forces already share a number of services with others forces, including police air support.....
That no doubt refers to the formal / informal ( ??? ) Central Region agreement between the four Midlands Air Units
to support each other on a "nearest aircraft attends" basis, or when their own aircraft is not available during their usual operating hours
