Sounds like train hard fight easy was not the daily mantra. Especially when you discover that the low hills behind the ‘Fr Ted house’ from the 90’s tv series are considered a valid area to conduct mountain flying training according to operations manuals (highest point 1129ft). Or conducting deck winching currency, day or night, to static tankers at anchor in estuaries. But relevant is the LLIF question, also radar letdowns and transits such as that which was central to this accident. How often, what rearcrew involvement if any given most are not trained as navigators at odds with UKSAR, plus the CRM question given evidence from the transcript of the PF also programming the FMS which is an instant red flag from any offshore or SAR operator elsewhere.
