The services
Aero Bureau provides in the new millennium ranges from patrol
support to Homeland Security to search and rescue operations.
The acquisition of the American Eurocopter AS350B2 "ASTAR"
helicopters for patrol operations and the Sikorsky H-3 helicopters
for mountain rescue has greatly enhanced Aero Bureau's ability
to address any situation requiring air support within the
Sheriff's jurisdiction and beyond. Additionally, the Bureau's
fleet of fixed wing aircraft provide vital covert surveillance
support to undercover detectives and rapid transport of personnel
to any location with a 1500 mile radius.
The patrol
helicopters support all law enforcement ground units involved
in police activity. With the use of advanced technology systems
that include Forward Looking Infrared (F.L.I.R.), Multi-band
digital radio systems, Global Positioning Mapping System,
and Down-Link video feed, air crews provide real time pro-active
support to law enforcement personnel and Command Operation
Centers. Air crews also provide transportation for specialized
units such as S.E.B., K-9, Arson Explosives Detail Unit, or
any other support unit that requires rapid and immediate deployment
to a location.
The Air 5 rescue program provides some of the most advanced
technical rescue capabilities available in the nation. With
a flight crew of two deputy pilots a sergeant crew chief and
two Emergency Service Detail deputy paramedics, the team is
deployed on search and rescue and over-water operations, and
can rapidly deploy Tactical Response Forces during major incidents.
The Los
Angeles County Sheriff's Department Aero Bureau provides vital
support to all law enforcement missions as a true force-multiplier
and is recognized world wide as a leader in tactical aviation
law enforcement services
