I suspect that once Chivenor & Boulmer have been down-graded to 12 hour status in 2012 ,then there will be no aircraft based at either location ,instead I think that one cab will be flown in daily from another location . As in Chivenors case , the powers that be say that during night-time rescues the area can be easily reached from either Valley , Culdrose or Portland ! Tell that to the relatives of anyone who has only minutes to survive in the cold waters of the Bristol Channel .
