I wonder if they ran a competition to select the new and catchy name for SAR-H?

Maybe there were irregularities in the process and a new winner was not selected?

Maybe they just couldn't be a*sed and decided it would be cheaper to keep the same letterheads and business cards.

SAR-H - the process formally known as ............. SAR-H.

If they are going to select new bases (possibly an expensive option) I hope they learn the lesson from moving SARF HQ to Valley ie if you want a well qualified and well motivated workforce, don't make them live in a 3rd world environment unless you pay them enough to compensate. Unlike the MoD you can't just order people to work there!

Unfortunately for my admirers, I won't be able to go SH in 2016 as I retire then However, a few more years flying thereafter in SAR-H is not entirely out of the question!
