Hampshire Police Air Support Unit

[ATP_Al]

Anyone worked for this organisation or flown any of the other UK police islanders?

I'd be grateful for any info you might have

Thanks!

[Trim Stab]

I heard it is very hard to get in unless you are ex-Army Air Corps, and have personal contacts.

[Fly Better!]

Join the free masons :)

The flying is a bit harder than you might think, generally the ex army guys fly the rotary not the fixed wing, its good fun and the pay is not bad. Very stable rosta.

[Mike Cross]

Not so stable now. The aircraft is grounded awaiting sale and the unit has ceased operations.

[Trim Stab]

They were recruiting about a year ago!

I know thats quite old thread, but I would also some information of former pilots or camera operator. We just bought this AC

[gordon field]

Bought it! Lucky you, I thought the reason that the aircraft had remained unsold for some 2 years was that it had certain non EASA police role equipment modifications incorporated that made it not eligible for issuance of an EASA C of A unless it were to be registered as a State aircraft. Hope you got this sorted out.

If you Google "Lee Flying Association" and drop them an email it can be Passed along to former crew.

Perhaps I can help. What do you need to know? I spent some years flying that Defender.

[sirBruno]
