Distracting a pilot whilst in flight is incredibly dangerous and is a serious risk not just to the crew but to people on the ground. It also takes the crew away from the purpose of the flight, which could be searching for a missing and vulnerable person, or helping apprehend a dangerous driver or suspect.
Captain Watts said sophisticated mapping and camera equipment on NPAS aircraft allows them to "very easily" find the location of offenders. "We will pursue action against offenders and will always support prosecution, which can lead to imprisonment," he added.
