Helicopter at Half 4 in the Morning

[Mrs Magpie]

...and Roadkill, lots of people growing cannabis get caught by the fire brigade because it gets too hot and a fire breaks out...right, I'm off now...going out for a meal....

You can use infra red daytime.

Yes you can but in warm weather it would be very hard to tell wether a roof was glowing due to a farm or just because the roof has heated up in the sun.

However, in these and other reported cases, the helicopter has been used to confirm prior suspicions raised either by patrolling officers noticing something or by electricity companies alerting the police to unusual patterns of usage.

They still don't go out on fishing expeditions just looking for cannabis factories. If whilst on routine patrol they happen to come across something which catches their attention they will, of course, report it for furrther investigation.

They will also sometimes be used as part of an intelligence led operation - where information has been received about a factory in a certain area, or where several are specifically suspected to be.

But no, they don't go up and down just looking for cannabis factories and nothing else.

 

[Mrs Magpie]

Well, they've been buzzing about again for a while tonight.....

 

[Mrs Magpie]

....before five this morning for over half an hour
