Hello All,
I was wondering what aircraft were used in the Air-Sea rescue role by the RAF during WWII, as doing recreation flights in FSX is quite cool. As I understand from Wikipedia, an Air-Sea rescue service was not set up until 1941. After that I can find nothing. Any help would be much appreciated :salute:
BTW - Was it really true that if the electrics failed on a Boulton-paul Defiant, the turret-gunner was doomed? I would think it incredibly irresponsible that they did not even provide a manual back-up, to allow the gunner to get out, or a pop out hatch. This has been in my mind ever since I read, "A Piece of Cake"
