Ireland has cancelled its controversial purchase of S92 search-and-rescue helicopters due to budget problems; the purchase had been challenged in court by the losing bidder (Eurocopter's Cougar). Instead, the military will lease one S61 for search-and rescue. The Irish military only provides search and rescue for the northwest part of the country, leaving the coverage of other coasts to a private company.--Stephen V Cole

But we need your help to keep going! The summer months are our lowest revenue months. And we need your support.

Each month we count on your contributions. You can support us in the following ways:
