  • Fifty Years Ago There Were Around 100 Police Forces in the England and Wales
    ©Police Aviation Research Number 114 October 2005 IPAR Fifty years ago there were around 100 police forces in the England and Wales. This number has now fallen to just 43 forces and plans are afoot to sweep away the smaller forces with under 2,000 sworn officers and reduce the number still further. Some of the pressures for change lie in reactions to such small force failures as the Soham child murders that highlighted failures in Cambridgeshire [1,250 officers] and Humberside [2,000 officers]. In air support terms there may be little immediate change. The threatened small forces including such as Warwickshire [1,000 officers] already take part in an air support consortium but already suggested as being absorbed into a neighbouring police force outside the current air arrangement. In contrast, Kent and Norfolk large regions with relatively few officers and a long standing need for substantive modern air support could see themselves joining neighbours and attracting – probably stretching – existing resources. Problems may arise where the new police force boundaries do not fit in with current and proposed consortia. One proposal is for Wales to become one force but North Wales is in the North West Consortium and closely tied in with the English force in Cheshire. Current plans will clearly be at risk there. It seems that any difficulties may be short-lived, the Government has suggested that ACPO get their proposals on the table by years end but the commercial ramifications could last longer if existing maintenance contracts turn messy.

The STC was developed by ESG’s EASA Part 21 J Design Organisation and covers the integration of the FLIR Systems StarSAFIRE 380-HD and StarSAFIRE 380-HDc products into EC135 helicopters. Through an extensive comprehensive flight test programme - including handling qualities, flight per- formance and functionality - it enables CAT-A operations, giving crews additional safety margins during takeoff and landing. The modification is set up in a generic way and can be used with different types of EO/IR. Initially it will be used for the FLIR Systems Star SAFIRE 380-HD family. The Croatian Police, the initial customer of this installation, took delivery of the first modified helicopter in August this year.

The briefing ends with a section of concluding comments highlighting findings from the 2007 Report Trauma: Who Cares?1 and noting several barriers, identified in the literature, which may prevent a greater role for air ambulances in the UK.
