How many pilots and crewmen based in Portland and Lee would actually want to up sticks and move to 'good old Aberdeen'? As for crewmen, what would they do in Aberdeen? As far as I know, there are no jobs for crewmen there. Pilot wise, perhaps ten or so could be assimilated into the Aberdeen system, but not many more. So where would the rest go?
Anyway, you SAR guys always give the impression that you 'love' the job so much, that you wouldn't do anything to disrupt the service. During the recent pay review at Bristows, SAR pilots and crewmen supported the union stance, BUT would not take part in any form of industrial action. Very commendable!
So just how many of the Bristow SAR crews would decide to stay with Bristow and forego the transfer to CHC, where they could continue doing what they do best?
And they are the best!!!
