Waterford RESCUE 117 - Tribute
Loading...
Uploaded by SARRescue117 on Mar 19, 2010
On 15th March 2010, the Irish Government put a price on peoples heads.... €1m euros.
They decided it was better to have lives lost at sea and save €1m euro, than to have one of the most vital Rescue services in the country operating 24hrs a day.
Two days later they spent the equivalent money travelling around the world in the Government Jet for St.Patricks day and filling their stomachs...
WHAT A SICK AND TWISTED WORLD WE LIVE IN.

Just a slight correction on your comment, EI CXS is the duty aircraft in sligo
and EI CNL was returned to the owners when EI GCE arrived from norway in 2007, the other spare aircraft is EI CZN.
it was on duty in shannon a few weeks ago while GCE was in for maintenance.
other than that your spot on
-
the government just spent €1m on revamping all the ministers plush cars. nice to see their priorities
-
Biggest respect to you guys and your beast the S61, what a machine! You all do the country proud...

i thought rescue 117 is only given to the chopper when its on a rescue. but for normal flying its callsign is, Romeo Charlie Golf (or something along those lines)

You are correct, Scoutwitgun.
There are 6 aircraft in total accross Ireland - EI-SAR, EI-RCG, EI-CXS (Spare), EI-MES, EI-CNL (spare) and EI-GCE.
There is 4 on duty at all times - they donn the callsigns 'Rescue 115', 'Rescue 116', Rescue 117', and Rescue 118 when tasked.
The Duty Aircraft in Waterford is EI-SAR, or "Sierra Alpha Romeo" (their backup is EI-RCG - or prounounced "Romeo Charlie Golf", as you correctly mentioned).
They use callsign RESCUE 117 on Taskings.
