Seems the incident got lots of press coverage in some parts of the world, but not in the UK.
Deliberate MOD policy to bury any achievements by the SAR Force towards the end. Started years ago when SAR-H was first mooted, relaxed somewhat when SAR-H collapsed, then re-instigated more recently as the closure of SAR flights loomed. One obvious example from this year was MACr Duncan Tripp whose MBE for services to RAF SAR was publicized by Bristow (his new employer) but not by the RAF!

We haven't got an intelligent or unbiased press anymore. Great Britain the baby was thrown out with the bath water.
But its still a hell of a rescue effort. Brilliant.
