Perhaps the police, instead of making a public spectacle of this guy, should realize that they could be doing EXACTLY what he was doing and spending one hell of a lot less $$. If you are looking for a missing person, you don't need a a helicopter in the air at hundreds of pounds per hour when we have something now that works just as well. What I am saying is, for these types of things, DRONES ARE CHEAPER, and maybe even better. I would bet that you could dispatch a fleet of these under computer control and cover 10 times the area of the Helicopter in 1/10th the time AT THE SAME COST.
