SAR: Search & Rescue Ops
It is now several weeks since this sad occurance. Does anyone have some firmer information on this now?
It would be good to study the actual problem and outcomes so we can learn from it, rather than just speculate and then forget, as we sometimes have a tendancy to do here.

Jaa & Sar
Just a quick one,
Can anyone out there tell me whether SAR in the UK is conducted under the HEMS dispensations for JAA-JAR or does it have a set of rules of its own?
Cheers........

Thanks for responding to my post, interesting.
Does that mean that an operators exemptions from Public Transport Regulations is decided purely on their Operator's Certificate as determined by the CAA/IAA on an individual company basis & there is no provision for SAR exemptions under JAR-OPS 3?

For the avoidance of doubt, OOPS78 expressed a personal view
, not the official Rotorheads line.
I can't help with your query, but hope others will be able to do so.
Good Luck.

How about checking with CHC Australia as they run a number of S-76s on RAAF SAR operations around Australia.
They hire crewmen from time to time so it might be worth a shot.

A well put together docco, i thought, with some good insight into Coastguard SAR flying.
Though, you would have thought they would be using Pumas with all that snow and cold weather floating about.
The question is, are any of the pilots ppruners, and would they like to comment?
