My aunts ex-husband is a Sea king tech, he said to me once "Yeah I'll fix'em but there is no way in hell I would fly in one"...It's the same situation with the Labrador search and rescue helo's, I remeber a few times when they had to put them down into Johnston Strait between Vancouver Island and the mainland, they towed one to a local boat ramp then trailored the helo to the local airbase. It's a sad state of affairs in the Canadian Armed Forces...

It's the same situation with the Labrador search and rescue helo "To Kill a Whopping Bird" bump!
A Canadian Forces safety flick featuring a fatal Lab crash, for those of you who haven't seen it. Good stuff for the genre - I'd say only "Trial by Fire" and "Man from LOX" are better.
