Rumour has it (after all this is pprune) that the front runners for long SAR, are:
Bristows, CHC and Bond. It seems no-one else is keen..........................
No doubt, consortiums will/may form after the bidding war has ended, but so far, so limited. Any of these could do the job with their eyes closed.
[Gap SAR goes to show that the government have short memories vis a vie CHC eh?
