The police dept here had people flying for 2 years with only a private. I
still think it would be wiser to have professional pilots to worry about the

being too much of a cop and not enough of a pilot is when things will turn
bad. Here's an article praising the cops for finally getting their commercial

One of the topics taught at airborne law enforcement seminars is
cockpit management. There is a strict division of duties between the
flight officer & the pilot. The pilots sole mission is the safe
operation of the aircraft.
