It all boils down to intelligence... getting a report of an incident localizes a general area, after which they fly to that location to start the search.
It's a bit convoluted, but in essence there aren't enough C-130H aircraft to do the job, but more importantly, the incoming CC-295 Kingfisher Search and Rescue aircraft is still undergoing Initial Operational Test and Evaluation, so the C-130J is on deck for the time being.
@@GoofieNewfie69 In comparison to the Buffalo, you're right, the C-130 is more expensive to operate, but it also has more range and payload, so it's all a matter of what you need it to do and where.
@@goboldwithjoeteyattariwala Yes the hercy bird has more range and payload, but how much payload do you need to find people and drop in a couple SAR techs with their med bags? Even the buff never carried anywhere near max payload on a search. As for max cas evac, any transport can be sent in for that. no need to have a big 4 engine transport for a search
A Canadian Coast Guard ship will be St Johns and 7 hours. You do realize the crew men are almost frozen and can not enter anything! Tired and half frozen. Drop a man in a dry suit. I know the risk. Drop me. They deserve a chance. I know the Atlantic. Drop drop!
Seems like a smart guy, but he should check himself before he goes on camera his shirt is sticking out at the front, kind of distracts from what he’s saying
I think I saw you fly by today?😮
I wonder how they mange such a large search and rescue area

Why is C130J used for search and rescue

Because the retired the buff and never replaced it. The c130 is a lot more expansive to operate
