I did not suggest that you should have ditched. If it was a 3 hour flight back to land / base then it was windy. If you had just established in the cruise, you were not far from your take off point. Why not just return to the rig?
To just crack the light and ignore the condition without looking at going back to the or a rig, informing Bristow Dyce / Sumburgh or ATC ( probably not open?) so that they could have at least started SAR prep was cavalier in my opinion.
What was the type?
I know about Uvic Jackets, Decca, no SAR etc, I flew there too.

You must be SAS under another identity. You haven't contributed to the substance of the discussion just told us SAS's age and experience, which we already knew. But thanks anyway.
