Unknown but unlike UKSAR tasking hours reduce training allocation
Hedski, is that actually the case?
If so it is a major change of position from what Bristow were stating pre-contract when they were asked about training hours.
They were quite adamant that trg could be conducted on ops and count towards the required hours/stats.
Much of my concern and criticism of the contractorisation was founded on their poor attitude to trg hours so maybe the reality of SAR skills trg has been acknowledged by the management.
The ICG attitude is exactly why I railed against commercial SAR for UK.
