Welshie,

Thought you wanted to be a copper, looking at your last post!

Anyway, SARF is made up of the aircrews on 22, 202 & 203 Sqns, so you're looking at either pilot, hope to be streamed rotary then hope to be streamed SAR rather than Support Helicopter, or WSOp then hope to be streamed crewman, then again for SAR.

Or you could join as any branch/trade, nationality dependent, and when posted to a stn that has a mountain rescue team attached and get involved that way. It is voluntary and not part of the primary duties for most who are involved, but some can go that way as certain posts - team leader/coord are full time.
