I don't want to do this but I'm fed up with
[email protected] throwing mud at the MCA crews.
Do the MCA flights have a declared second standby aircraft and crew available at RS 60? No.
About 2 weeks ago Lossie went off state because the crew had done two 5 hour jobs and were fatigued. Good work and a good call to take the rest.
But Crab where was your standby aircraft and crew then????
what I do hate is when petty minded and uninformed individuals start knocking military SAR for being too expensive when they haven't got a clue about a. what it costs or b. what you actually get for your money.
But that is exactly what you do to civil SAR.
