Quite correct Mr Whirly and, since I was the first one there, I feel able to comment with some authority.

Who were the only ones who awarded themselves DFCs for it though? Guess what, it wasn't the RAF or the MCA - RN PR doesn't need any help from John Sergeant.

If they wanted to mention SAR in the Sea King, why not have a proper segment on the service with most SAR Sea Kings? They must have been short of footage since they kept showing the Wessex in action!

Don't have a problem with lots of junglie action since they do have the most SKs!

One other point, I thought HRH Prince Andrew was a Lynx pilot not a Sea King one.
