Yesterday, Golf Uniform landed at Lydd to join Golf Papa for a work-up period (6 wk is typical???) prior to taking over from the 139s.
So what does this do to the programme for St Athans and Inverness?
Has BHL financed these a/c in a different way?
Has Government levered this?
Anyone know who got the job at MCA Aviation prepping for UKSAR-Gen2?
I don’t know the answers to your questions. I do know however that I feel I am providing a more effective service with Bristow than I did in mil SAR and I feel much, much safer doing it. Opinion my own. Sorry to those who bristle reading this.
