In this episode of Callout Search And Rescue, we dive into the high-stakes world of elite Search and Rescue (SAR) operations. First, we follow teams deploying advanced side-scan sonar technology to locate a missing camper in a river notorious for its "deceptively shallow" floodplains and deadly hidden currents. Then, we head to 442 Squadron to go inside the cockpit of the CH-149 Cormorant. Witness the grueling three-month training program where pilot candidates must master a $39 million "beast" of a machine, capable of flying in the worst weather conditions on Earth.
