Our guest speaker for April will be a Police Officer from PolAir - the NSW Police Force Aviation Command that provides aerial support to police across New South Wales, based at Bankstown Airport. The Officer's name will be advised subject to operational needs.
The Polair talk is titled, “POLAIR WORK & INSIGHTS”.
Polair's strategy is to serve from above, statewide, as a force multiplier, adding value at any incident that impacts on officer or public safety. Its duties include:
- Search and rescue (including missing children, the elderly and lost bushwalkers)
- Patrol support (searching for offenders)
- High visibility operations for special events (e.g. New Year's Eve, Mardi Gras, City to
surf, Vivid, etc.)
- Reconnaissance tasks
- Counter terrorism operations
- Transport of dignitaries and specialised police
- Displays / demonstrations and charity events
- Maintenance and servicing of police aircraft.
The command utilises state of the art specialised technology such as rescue winches, Forward Looking Infra Red (FLIR), high definition video camera system, PA system, beam searchlights, downlinking of live video, digital radio systems and Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) navigation systems.
Its current fleet consists of five helicopters and three fixed wing aircraft. The command also maintain the fleet of NSW Police Force's Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA).
