819 NAS crew 1973 rescue F-111 crew
I would like to track down any of the Helicopter crew from 819 Naval Air Squadron who rescued 2 USAF F-111 crew who ejected near Skipness Beacon in Scotland 15 May 1973. They were from 77th Tactical Fighter Squadron :
Description: ( they both survived )
A large bird was ingested into the stbd engine, resulting in an inflight fire. Crashed in western Scotland 21 NM NNE of Machnhanish, near Skipness, Mull of Kintyre, Scotland McDonnell Escape Capsule
Pilot Capt. Andrew J. Peloquin WSO. Major or Ariel Alvarez
Many thanks
