Is there any information on the weather limits applicable in terms of IMC,icing especially,as it`s a piston engine,as the UK`s weather can be anywhere from balmy,to barmy....?
I can see it being deployed/based in areas remote from dedicated SAR units as a Search asset until the real troops arrive for the `rescue`.It should also be remembered that 4 pairs of eyes,4 brains,and collective local knowledge of weather,local MRT,lifeboat crews, even intuition `outside the box`,etc play the biggest part of a successful rescue.....
