Akula, some of what you say might have been true some time ago but, we aint doing it that way anymore. The US has moved subtley away from the 80 mission package for one person - bless you Scott.

Since all this kicked off in Afghanistan in 01 the US has done things differently. This is not the correct place to talk the hows and why's but, having worked for the JRCC co-ordinating CSAR - any SAR crew with a relatively small amount of extra training could do it.

Compressor stall has the UK policy in a nutshell. See not difficult really.
