Cairngorm Mountain Rescue Drama
BBC reports today that an RAF Mountain Rescue helicopter had to make an emergency landing last night whilst airlifting an injured climber to safety in the Cairngorms. Seems the helicopter blades started to ice up and they had to put down quickly. The crew walked out safely to Glenmore whilst the Cairngorm Mountain Rescue Team carried the injured climber to safety through deep snow and freezing conditions.
