For those with aspirations to fly for Bristow in the North Sea, you'll find yourselves in august company. Shiner Wright the navy diver who helped to pull survivors of the Murree BBC iPlayer - The Sea King: Britain's Flying Past
(see from minute 32 to minute 39) is now a line training captain presently flying from Aberdeen.

He joined Bristow as rear crew in SAR S61Ns and was later accepted for company-sponsored pilot training. To say that he's good company on the flight deck is an understatement and hearing his anecdotes in the crewroom on a very foggy day has everyone in stitches.

Bristows sure knows how to pick 'em!
