57A - but they probably won't do flypasts for you

3D - this partial grounding of the 139s is odd and the information flow about the aircraft's capabilities is sketchy - you say one 139 has the overload tank, did the CG press release not say that all the 139s would have the same range capability? The SAR autohover according to one poster is very good but not actually available yet - glad to see this aircraft hasn't been rushed to the front line too quickly

And no icing clearance!!!!!!!!What sort of SAR helicopter is that??

Vie - just shut Portland and move Wattisham to Manston - hang on haven't we been there before???
