sea breeze,
thanks for the good wishes, looks like they will be needed, was announced today that a "compromise" had been reached between NSW Gov and CareFlight (not sure about Life Saver), looks like the doctors, some office staff and HIRT crews are safe, the rest thanks for coming your on your own. Things will continue as before until end of April when CHC machines take over.
Was a few years ago that I did a CHC Australia Aircrewman fitness test, if I recall rightly (and I'm sure I'll be corrected if wrong) it was, not in any order:
8 chin ups, 40 push ups, 50 sit ups, 3 km run in 15 minutes, 700 mt swim in 20 mins, 10 min treading water and 2 to 3 mt duck dive, then into wet suit and fins and 300 mts on back. I look up to the blokes over 40 who can still do this easily as I ain't one of them.
All the best for 2007 to all the Rotorheads
