A little bird tells me that a black and yellow chopper spent 2 hrs going up and down the north sea looking for a rig to take him during those high winds
and as for :-
"The aircraft are in theatre and have added to the safey of the North Sea Oil industry as recently demonstrated by assisting SHELL to evacuate it's "TERN A" platform when it suffered a fire"
Notice you never mentioned the RAF or the Coastguard Helo's who also took part in the incident it must have slipped your mind
