In section 19 of the flight plan, Supp Info there are the Cross out boxes for Polar, Desert, Maritime, or Jungle survival equipment.
Since there are the further boxes to list Life Jackets and Dingy, I have always assumed that Maritime Equipment is in addition to those basics.
So what does Maritime Equipment consist of?
I would imagine it is stuff like:
Liferaft equiped with more advanced kit...Food, Water, water purifier, fishing and signalling kit, Locator beacon, VHF radio, GPS etc.
Immersion suits
Our Ops dept keeps putting us down as having Maritime equipment, even though we ony have lifejackets, no dingy, just life jackets.
I am sure this is wrong, but want to go to them with written evidence from an official document, rather than just my hunch
Cheers
