Even though it’s been a busy couple of days, both Life Saving Victoria Westpac Helicopters are back in the air. . #Lifesaver31 is in the far west of the state and sent this photo of Cape Otway. They’ve been to a tasking already today.

With the hot weather today and over NY I spent the morning out speaking with Victorian Westpac Helicopters crews on the flight line, #Lifesaver30 and #Lifesaver31 have both been out on patrol this morning. The crews will fly extra patrols in the next few days! @EMV_news Life Saving Victoria

#Lifesaver31 returning to base after being sent to search for a missing child. So important to keep children within arms reach at all times!

Yesterday #Lifesaver30 detected a “PAN” call being made by a sailing vessel that had run aground on the Bellarine Peninsula. The crew located the yacht, and checked on the occupants welfare before arranging Aus Vol Coast Guard to assist.

#RESCUE: #Lifesaver30 has had a busy Christmas Day. Tasked to rescue 3 kayakers in Westernport Bay, who luckily were wearing lifejackets. They were winched to safety. After returning, quickly tasked by Victoria Police to a search off Portarlington who were located after a search.
