I have been fortunate to work with some outstandingly professional individuals from all ranks and specialisations in the RAF SAR Force and, despite the naysayers, our track record in maritime, mountain, inland and urban search and rescue is outstanding.
Who else has a standards organisation that does no-notice Opevals, checks every SAR flt every 18 months,
Crab, I second all of the first para (quoted), but GSU USED to check every flight twice a year, one formal week and one no-notice opeval.We had nine flights. I say again, what went wrong? (I have my own theory!)
