Hey Grant,
No problem. They really had my hopes up too. That and the supposed re-release of this kit which has yet to materialize.
Hey, sorry about reponding to your e-mail so late but we just finished an ORI, and Cooperative Cope Thunder 04-1. Our busy season hasn't been all that busy in the civil SAR game. I guess the gene puddle has dried up
or folks are getting smarter in the outdoors. We had a few high-vis missions. One where we couldn't get in to a 14,000 ft camp in the Wrangells with the Pavehawk, so we inserted a team down below and worked up the the injured climber. Packaged her up and then brought her down out of the clouds to the -Hawk. Flew to a nearby airstrip, transloaded her to an HC-130, and then into town and a hospital.
Anywho, the Sockeyes are running and I've got a few more fish to top off the freezer for winter. Then in a couple months it's time to start looking for the other red meat...you know....the one with antlers and four legs.
