Ready to be corrected, but I thought as the aircraft carries Lifejackets they have to be demonstrated.
They carry lifejackets because it is a legal requirement to do so if they are operating to an airport within 50 nm of the coast and/or they are making approaches over water which may predispose it to a ditching situation.
That's the way I understand it but as I say am ready to be corrected. After all evryday is a school day.
