Pilots found safe

Taken from BBC.co.uk

"Two British helicopter pilots missing in Antarctica have been found and are receiving medical treatment.
Jennifer Murray, 63, and Colin Bodill, 54, were attempting to be the first to fly around the globe in a helicopter via South and North poles.

RAF Kinloss in Scotland raised the alarm at 0100 GMT and an RAF centre in the Falklands launched a rescue.

Ms Murray, who suffered a broken arm, and Mr Bodill, are expected to be flown back to Chile on Saturday.

No details of the condition of Mr Bodill have yet been confirmed"
