What are the difference in the "Limits they can fly to...."?
Equally equipped aircraft, equally skilled Crews, or is there a significant difference in the capability of the current Sea King Fleet as compared to the Civilian Fleet that replaces them?
How does the US Coast Guard fleet of JayHawks and Dolphins compare in capability to the 92 and 139 fleet that is coming?
The Coast Guard seems to do just fine up in Alaska which has weather as bad and in some cases far worse than in the UK.
