hey if they will hover at 8000ft instead of just a few yards over my house at 2 in the morning when chasing scumbags, I'm all for it! |

The technology involved in aerial photography is just stunning.
My RAF Sqn was a recce unit. The aircraft could take pics from silly heights (I.E. so the jet engines can't be heard from the ground), and the pics could then be blown up to make newspaper text on the ground clearly readable.
This isn't ground breaking technology, it's openly available, for the right money!
I just found out theres a suffix code for you licence if your caught by an aircraft aswell, now that would be kind of cool! ____________________ "THOSE WHO RISK NOTHING, DO NOTHING, ACHIEVE NOTHING, BECOME NOTHING." |

What a crock of crap. Its just a camera that can zoom in further.
1. If its for catching crims in stolen cars, then does it really matter if they can see the numberplate or not, the theifs dont care because its not their car.
2. I seriously doubt its for catching speeders, the helicopter costs shit loads to run for a couple of hours, and are usually only used when theres a highspeed chase, or when searching for theifs and/or lost and injured people.
My opinion, is that the "can read numberplates from 8000 feet" is just an addon by some twat aimed to scare people. Take no notice.
@thx - I know the feeling, i live about 2 mins walk away from the local chopper base, its fking annoying trying to get to sleep with the racket it makes.
Gets on my nerves aswell, people round here dont mind a loud as **** police chopper flying over our heads all day and night long, but whenever we take the bikes out onto the local feilds, they all start moaning about noise. |
