EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, three intrepid air sea rescue crew members are seen poised for action in the cramped confines of a helicopter, hovering above the stormy waters off the coast of Cornwall in the 1970s. The diver, dressed in a thick wetsuit and helmet, clutches an oxygen canister and prepares to make his descent into the churning sea below. The pilot, focused intently on the controls, wears a flight suit and aviator sunglasses, while the navigator, with map in hand, plots their next move. The helicopter, a vital tool in the fight against the unpredictable and often treacherous conditions of the sea, was a lifeline for those in distress. With its powerful rotors and agile design, it could quickly and efficiently transport rescue teams and supplies to the scene of an emergency, providing a crucial link between land and sea. The crew's mission was to locate and recover distressed persons, often sailors or fishermen, who had been thrown into the water by rough seas or other mishaps. The diver would make the perilous descent into the water, using the oxygen canister to breathe underwater, while the pilot and navigator kept a watchful eye from above, ready to provide support or guidance as needed. Despite the inherent dangers of their work, the air sea rescue crew were a vital part of the maritime community, their bravery and expertise saving countless lives over the years. This photograph captures a moment of quiet determination and focus, as they prepare to embark on another mission to bring someone safely back to shore.
