sorry to keep harping on but the lights have gone off again outside. Does the south coast have full overnight SAR cover yet?

The way I read sappers post at 0735 yesterday...

All, please be assured that the 139s at Solent & Portland are now on line and ready for what the South Coast produces.
was that the 139s were only back on line cos the big light in the sky was back on line.

Good to hear the South is up and running again
implies it may be more permanent???

whilst those in the know...and maybe those (crab ) that aren't... can argue til the cows come home whether the 139 is or isn't an all singing all dancing SAR angel of mercy and apportion blame to any TLA they can think of, my main concern is that a significant & busy shipping and maritime leisure area is devoid of nearby helo cover. Am I the only one who has these concerns??? why aren't the local or national media having a field day???
