It's a vast role — we pretty much do everything.”Insp Shepherd is also the face behind Victoria Police's first ever Drones Unit.The unit, which has been operating since September last year, now has 40 pilots across the state.“That number will double over the next six months so within the next five years there will be several hundred drone pilots with drones across the state,” he said.“In fact drones will be used in Shepparton over the coming weeks because there is a pilot in this region.”Insp Shepherd has not only left his mark on the Victoria Police Air Wing, he has also been instrumental in shaping changes for a number of other units during the past 28 years.He has worked in the Critical Incident Response Team, the Geelong Regional Response Unit, the Water Police Squad and the Counter Terrorism Coordination Unit — just to name a few.But Insp Shepherd now faces a new challenge — possibly the most difficult one to date.While the world battles through a second wave of the coronavirus pandemic, Insp Shepherd has been asked to run the combined emergency management response operation for two weeks.Working at Emergency Management Victoria headquarters, Insp Shepherd is now in control of the statewide COVID-19 response operation, focusing on the 12 Melbourne suburbs which have been placed into lock-down.It's a huge responsibility, one that carries significant weight, yet Insp Shepherd said he was determined to help lead the state back from the brink of devastation.“I'm leaving my role for two weeks to run the statewide multi-agency approach and operation for COVID-19,” he said.“It's a great opportunity, it's a very different role to what I have been doing. Today those officers have access to the most advanced police air fleet in the world. Turn on push notifications and don't miss anything! "We called a helicopter at 8.22pm and learned a drone operator was available, we just got whatever resources we had available to give us the best view and the best picture we could of what was going on. he said.“Operation Genesis was the largest maritime evacuation of people in Australian history during the January bushfires from the town of Mallacoota — I'm not sure what's next after that.”One thing is for certain, however: road trips down Hume Fwy to Shepparton to visit family will always be on the cards.“I’m still connected to Shepparton in a way — we still come back here and visit family, and still have friends that live in the area.” Huddersfield have signed former Queensland State of Origin forward Chris McQueen on a short-term deal following his release by Wests Tigers.

One of the new seven tonne Leonardo AW139 helicopters introduced to the Victoria Police Air Wing.Shepparton police will now have extra assistance from the skies following the rollout of the first of four state-of-the-art aircraft to join the Victoria Police Air Wing.The seven tonne Leonardo AW139 helicopter was introduced to the fleet at the Essendon Fields base on Tuesday and will soon be followed by two more helicopters and a fixed-wing plane to provide tactical support to local police from above.The helicopters, provided by StarFlight Victoria, have advanced infrared camera and mapping systems as well as improved object detection software to assist with marine and land-based searches.Air Wing Inspector Craig Shepherd said the helicopters offered greater power and longer endurance than the previous fleet and could also seat three times as many people.“We’re a support service for all other responding units across Victoria Police,” he said.“Having the extra capability and technology in our helicopters means we can deliver more police officers to jobs and provide greater support to ground units.“It enables us to strengthen our community response as incidents are unfolding and provide increased surveillance where required.”The Victoria Police Airwing responds to more than 5000 jobs a year, including callouts for search and rescue, crime prevention and detection, surveillance, and rapid deployment of specialist units including the Dog Squad and Water Police.The unit also assists across geographic areas that cannot be easily navigated on foot due to difficult terrain.The fixed-wing Beechcraft Super King Air 350ER, acquired from Skytraders, will be the first plane to be used by Victoria Police for over 20 years.While the plane offers the same camera and mapping equipment as the helicopters, it has the added advantage of being able to remain airborne for more than 10 hours.“This will greatly support our response to rural and regional areas that require assistance from the Air Wing,” Insp Shepherd said.
