The Lisbon MRCC received a distress call late on 28 Jul and in coordination with the Lisbon ARCC, despatched a C-295M from Esq 502 to provide on-scene control and a Merlin from Esq 751 to conduct the rescue of a person needing urgent medical assistance.
Once the casualty was winched aboard, the Merlin headed back to Montijo where an ambulance was waiting. After a 1hr 35min flight back from the rescue site, the Merlin landed just after midnight.
