I doubt that the MCA cabs venture in the mountains at night to conduct what mil operators would class as 'night mountains'
Detgnome for the record your doubt is incorrect - I have flown many missions at night for Stornoway Civvy MCA SAR "In the Mountains" negative NVG until the final throes of Bristows when NVG was available although handheld and limited!!!
Again guys; you are writing a lot of stuff on this forum based on what you think!!! Feel free to ask becaus ethere are many pilots out there who could "fill in the gaps" for you all.
