Culdrose would be the nearest if it exists, who is to say it will, it may turn out not to be viable in private ownership and with these new speedy machines where will the next sight be at 140 Kts and & 1 hour from lift off, forgetting the head wind ??
This was an example not necessaraly a site I am sure you can fill in a situation to fit.
Nobody has given the cost of the mil still running their own SAR + the PFI cost.
All I know is if I take another dunking I want someone to pull me out as quick as possible & the last 10 minutes could be to late, + it could be any time in the 24 hours, do not want to wait till daylight.
