It might have been ‘pipe and slippers’, but those SAR crews all have balls of steel (especially the mine story at the end!)

What a fantastically understated but clearly very brave gentleman.

The Mark 3 Sea King had the SN500 AFCS system fitted, designed in the early 90s. The system was the first Digital 4 Axis flight control systems designed in the UK. I worked as part of the Design team and developed all different Auto-pilot functions, happy days.

Okay, we need to hear a lot more from John because his stories are brilliant.
