You saying that the RAF can't turn out SH pilots capable of becoming SAR pilots??
No, we have been turning SH pilots into SAR captains for many years - SARTU refresher, then SK OCU then 6 months as LCR then another year as CR then Op Captaincy - about 2 years flash to bang on average
I have no problem sitting LHS with less SAR experienced captains in the RHS - it's my job most of the time
