Well that was all too easy - they clearly don't do banter in the RN.

Try this - you can conclude from the responses that it took the RN a whole Sqn to do what the RAF did with a flight...... and a whole ship's company was required to support one non-sar dedicated aircraft on the back of a grey funnel liner.

Out of interest how many of those aircraft on the back of the boats had fully trained SAR rearcrew ?

All that pompous self-belief in the 'everyone has a SAR capability' sadly lost you a crew in the English Channel a few years ago launching an inappropriately trained crew into poor weather for a MOB. - That bit wasn't banter btw.
