Reason why police plane was doing loops over Aintree

A police-owned plane was spotted doing loops over Aintree.

The Vulcanair P.68R, which is registered to the National Police Air Service, was seen looping over Aintree and Orrell Park for almost three hours on Thursday, April 7. According to FlightRadar the plane took off from Doncaster airport at 3.33pm and made its way straight to Merseyside.

The plane was seen looping on the opening day of the Grand National Festival at Aintree. This year is the first since 2019 that guests have been allowed to attend at full capacity.
