  • Cracking new book

    Theres a cracking new book out called (ironically after last weekend) "Mayday! Mayday! - Heroic Air-Sea Rescues in Irish Waters." Only 10 quid from Easons but gives a good insight into both the dangers that the crews face (+their bravery) and the often make it up as you go along nature of the AC. Nicely written too.

    Cheers ya'll.

              It is an excellent book,Just finished it. In a way it makes me think the Air Corps losing SAR was a good idea,due to successive governments leaving the service dwindle over the years till there was almost no service.
              At least CHC will not have their funding cut half ways through a contract.
              A tribute however,which was long overdue,to the Air Corps SAR crews who again and again put their lives on the line,usually without any publicity.
