Guest repliedAgreed. With CAP in the US, and CASARA in Canada, the only financing required from government is fuel cost. Even the Jamaican Defence Force uses a similar model for their Reserve, utilizing local aero clubs.

Not a bad idea though.
A Civil Air Patrol would be a great asset in monitoring coastal smuggling, aiding SAR missions,etc.
I'm sure there are many aircraft owners who would like to assist with SAR, if given the chance (they could be provided with fuel by the State).
Silver.

Reserve
G'day folks,
has there ever been an attempt to create an Air Corps Reserve in Ireland? Not necessarily for the military missions, but to aid in such areas as SAR etc. Something along the lines of the US Civil Air Patrol, Coast Guard Aux Air, or Canada's CASARA?Tags: None
