Take a look at our #SWET chair training, done in the @dftc_pio dive pool with the assistance of the DF Dive Group and under the close supervision of the @OC3OPS maritime survival team. This training is done regularly and trains us to escape an inverted aircraft in the water.

Take a look at our specialist Night Vision Goggle capability. Since developing it in 2008 we have grown to operate them in all of our #helicopter #flying disciplines, incl the special Ops evaluation seen here. They allow us to move our helis in areas of near total darkness
