Hmm,
I'm feeling slightly quilty now as the first person to bite at NRDK's post. My concern was based on the suggestion of deploying the Seaking to AF or Iraq, where is believe it would operate poorly (especially hot & high in AF). This was never aimed as a slur on the SAR crews, far from it, you provide a first class job & fly in weather conditions far outside my comfort zone.
In the FJ community, we all have mates who have been pulled out of the oggin or plucked from the side of a hill after opting for the Martin Baker experience & without you, many of them would be no longer with us so thank you.
