This Month's Special Presentation:
Down....but NOT Out An Introduction to Canada's Search & Rescue System
The summer flying season is upon us and over the next 3-4 months VFC pilots and aircraft will be exploring BC and points beyond. But wait....
What happens if you have an issue during your flight and find yourself on the ground, away from civilisation and immediate assistance?
Consider:
Our special guests this month are Major Greg Clarke, OIC of the Joint Rescue Coordination Centre (JRCC) Victoria, and Sgt Eric Dunn, a Search and Rescue Technician attached to JRCC.
Major Clarke & Sgt Dunn will take us through how the SAR system works, how to interact with the SAR system and finally, should the unthinkable happen, what you can do when you're on the ground waiting for help to arrive.
