We were given an illustrated talk by Keith Thomas entitled:
“Life as a Royal Air Force Search and Rescue Helicopter Pilot”
Keith started his illustrated talk telling us of a day’s work for each shift which included how the equipment was inspected and tested every day. He went on to talk about the different types of rescue, along with one or two amusing facts and how they developed a new lifting harness for those who had been in the water for several hours, which increased the chances of survival. A very informative and interesting illustrated talk.
