Thumbs up SAR In the GOM
Hi Guys

Just stumbled on this thread. SAR is available in the GOM. Big old S-61 sitting on the ramp in Galliano. BP requested a SAR machine for the 2005 hurrican season and she has been there since August 2005, and will be there for 2006 season, with qualified SAR crews. The guys actually did a rescue for Shell during Rita when one of their rigs broke loose and 46 people got stranded on her. Next time any of you are in the area stop by and have a chat to the guys for more info. Bewarned they are form the great white north so the accents might be a little funny. Spread the word. It might save somebodies life. Contact info for them
