Crab, presumably MIL SAR captains still do their share of LHS (ie '1st officer' duties) on the Mil SAR flights? (in the '90s it was common practice for a Captain to do 5 out of 10 shifts in the LHS)
Wonder how the Civ units do this? Are 1st officers just LHS until promoted? When promoted do the Captains just stay RHS?
