Zarg,

I know the SRU's receive regular training for SAR procedures and that they achieve a high standard.

What I would like to know is what training, if any, do the fixed wing SRU flight members receive for their own emergency training in case they have to ditch as they do fly around at less than 500 feet at times in challenging weather.

Additionally do their volunteer crew members from the SES ( or where ever ) ie the Dropmaster ect, have any training for their own personal safety?
