Plane and Boat Team Up to Save Pilots in Sea
Item
Saving the lives of airmen shot down over the English channel is almost the daily task of the sea rescue service of the British Royal Air Force. How airplanes and boats cooperate in this work was shown in a demonstration conducted off the English coast. Upon spotting a fallen pilot, the patrol plane drops a rubber boat. Radio directions then are sent from the airplane to a high-speed launch, and the plane continues to circle the spot until the boat reaches the scene and completes the rescue.
