Re: UK Coastguard SAR - Bristow out??
The client is the MCA/DfT not an oil company.
The punters dont really care about airconditioners when they have been pulled out of the North Sea/North Atlantic,deicing would be nice to have but not essential,probably cause more grief for the engineers than its actual use would warrant.
Floats,not much use for most of the year in this part of the world with the sea states being quoted.
Has the 92 got a fuel dump facility?
Are the 92 being used for this contract modified passenger a/c or purpose built SAR variants,any one know,or is it just quessing?
