I can only hope the perpetrator's houses get burgled, their cars stolen, and the theives speed off down the motorway, never to be seen again.

A police spokesman said; "If only we had a helicopter, we might have been able to find the culprits..."

Is this becoming another trend? I'm sure I read recently about another act of vandalism against a Police chopper - think it was further south IIRC....

Not good at all..... :mad:

I used to work in the Air Traffic building dealing with exec jets.And i can tell you first hand,the security is pathetic.little if any lighting,security guards asleep.Someone again will get some butt kicked for this.

A damned shame.
