Military Cutbacks!
Thought you might be interested in this one for the next issue of the Lifeboat magazine.
We've heard of military cutbacks but this takes the biscuit. A kite assisted rescue helicopter.
The photograph was taken recently during an exercise between the Port Talbot lifeboat D-550 and an RAF rescue helicopter. A sail surfer passed close inshore and the result was this photograph.
