Unlike the City's Parks Police, no provision was made in any of the Liverpool Corporation Acts for the swearing in of constables for the Airport, so they were instead sworn in as special constables of the central Liverpool City Police force.
[1] The force operated a variety of vehicles, including a Vespa scooter, Land Rover, and later a Mini van and BMC J4 patrol car.
The vehicles were notable for featuring a dark blue livery with a yellow roof and an amber flashing light rather than the standard blue.
In 1972, the force consisted of one Superintendent, four sergeants, and 15 constables, of which four were dog handlers.
Individual officers retained their status as special constables.
