Coastguard Sikorsky S92 in Snowdonia

Post by alisdairanderson »

These were taken recently from the top of Snowdon; reports suggest that someone had suffered a head-injury, and this S92 arrived …. quite heroic flying!

Cheers

It returned again, assuming to evacuate the casualty, but we had just started our descent by then.

Great pics, and a good sense of scale including the wider view.
