It was pre S61 at Shannon (initially), pre SK at Valley and Chivenor, pre Crab even! I am as keen as anyone to find out what went wrong - once SAR always SAR I guess - although Same Again might correct me.
I didn't think you were, just adding info, there were questions asked about whether crew had military training.
