Re: UK Coastguard SAR - Bristow out??

So what has the 225 got that gives it a better clearance than the L/L2
Nothing really. The wording of the FM Supp is different but the essence is the same. I would bounce the question back by saying where in the L / L2 supp does it say that you can't? You just have to be within x minutes flying time of the +ve temp band (ie coast) where x is I think 5 minutes? Sorry, I am not so sad as to keep the flight manuals at home so I can't be definitive at 23:53 pm.
