A publication from the RAF to assist people in understanding the process involved in employing Search and Rescue helicopters.

I sincerely hope no one ever needs to be winched out of some remote and inhospitable place via helicopter. But I suspect that if it were ever to befall anyone, most of us would have no idea what to do when that helicopter arrives on scene. Might be a good idea to read it now, so that if you’re ever unlucky enough to need to be rescued in this manner, you have a sense of what to do.

While it is a UK document, and certain points of procedure might be different in your part of the world, it still has lots of info that applies across the board.

And it is just an interesting document regardless.

Now to ....“get to da PDF of da rescue wits da choppa!”
