Liferaft Hire
 

Team,

Off to Scotland for a couple of weeks and need to source an aviation liferaft. Anyone know where I can hire one?

Cheers :)

SEMS in Essex do this.

01268 534427 (fax 281009)

Depending on your routeing, you could possibly pick one up in Wick (EGPC). Handy for Orkney and Shetland. Try Andy Bruce at Far North Aviation on 01955-602201. He holds immersion suits etc., as well.

Try your local flying school - they may have one to rent... The one I fly from does but it's a bit far from you.

SEMS are the best. Really good rates, something like £30pw or £200 pa for a decent raft. Ask for rates on lifejackets and blobby suits too. Their motto is "we want to you come back" i.e. repeat business hence the word-of-mouth recommendations and pricing.
