Anyone know if it is it correct that the Met. Police are no longer planning winching operations from their new 145's ?
I heard they had ordered all 3 aircraft with winch points and 1 winch - if true why the change of the plan ? - Are they still going to be doing fast roping from the 145 or has that idea been dropped too ?

Possibly because of the crewing requirement?
Police observers are deemed passengers, CAA probably wouldn't have a passenger lowering objects to the surface - so would a "winch op" have to become "crew"?
