Title: Air sea rescue practice
Post by: introducingmike on September 24, 2016, 12:10:33 AM

My Father caught some footage of a practice air sea rescue aboard one of the stena superfast ships tonight. I will try and work together some video material for the near future and post it in here.

Interesting!  I hadn't thought about that before now but I suppose it helps both crews.

S92 G-MCGG was active in the channel as CG999 around 19:45 to 21:00, presumably that was your bird?
