Survival course shows why flights divert, train over countryside

A U.S. Air Force Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape instructor (left) demonstrates the proper use of a recovery net commonly found on ships, to Airman 1st Class Trevor McBride, 48th Fighter Wing Public Affairs photojournalist, during a water survival training course at the Lowestoft College pool in Lowestoft, England, May 22, 2014. The class prepared aircrew for dangerous environments created by harsh weather conditions over water off the U.K. coastline. The 48th Fighter Wing’s strategic, European-based location enables the unit to support U.S. Air Forces in Europe’s “Forward, Ready, Now” posture by providing worldwide, responsive, combat airpower.
