Did you spot us on Sunday? @RAF_Cosford
It has been a very busy festive period for the MRS carrying out training in arduous winter conditions. RAF Valley MRT and RAF Lossiemouth MRT provided duty teams for Christmas and New Year respectively.
RAF Valley MRT conducted joint training with @AberglaslynMRTand @sardawales. The teams conducted a simulated callout for 4 casualties injured in difficult ground. This training is essential to increasing interoperability between Mountain Rescue Teams.
Members of Leeming MRT attended the remembrance service held at Great Gable on Sunday. They took part in the national 2-minute silence at 11:00 to remember all the lives lost to war.
Image from the Rope Rescue Technician course ran by RAF MRS. The capability to access and help people in the most inaccessible places is a core part of the skillset of MRS.
RAF Valley was out training and assisting @LlanberisMRT on a number of callouts over the weekend. It was an excellent weekend to demonstrate the skills and capabilities of the Mountan Rescue Service to Air Commodore Thompson, who visited a training weekend.
On Saturday 20th April RAF Valley MRT successfully responded to an APCIM call-out, utilising their technical rescue capabilities to recover wreckage of a RN RPAS flying from Prendannack @RoyalAirForce #royalairforce #globalenablement #mountainrescue
RAF Mountain Rescue Service retweeted
Well done to the troops from the @RoyalAirForce #RAFMountainRescue for passing their hybrid GVC. They will be deploying drones for Aircraft Post Crash and Incident Management and providing Military Aid to Civil Authorities. #drones #dronetraining #rescue
Congratulations to the Troops from across RAF MRS who successfully achieved their hybrid GVC certification with @heliguydotcom where they learned how to utilise drones for APCIM and MACA search Operations @RoyalAirForce #rafmrs #rafglobalenablement #royalairforce #mountainrescue
APCIM and MACA are RAF Mountain Rescues primary and secondary roles and today marks the final day of their annual winter training courses. Well done to everyone who made these courses a success and to all the Troops that took part, gaining essential winter mountaineering skills.

.@raf_mrs pulled off a “remarkable” life-saving rescue of a teenage walker who fell on Scafell Pike, England’s tallest mountain ⛰️ The rescue took around 16 hours as the personnel had to deal with dangerous snowy conditions ❄️ Read more 👇 forces.net/operations/mou…
Last week concluded the Winter Climbing Course in Norway where the Team learned essential skills to enable them to operate safely in arduous technical winter conditions #royalairforce #whensoever #rafmrs #mountainrescue
A selection of our Troops will be getting trained to become Tech Rescue Technicians soon. Here, @RAFLossiemouth MRT practice their tech rescue at a nearby crag
Last weekend, a 28 Squadron RAF Chinook from @rafbensonofficial made a precautionary landing in Arthog, N Wales during Ex KUKRI DAWN. @royalairforcevalley MRT were the first on scene; providing four Troops for immediate crash guard to protect the aircraft and also the public.
More photos of our Troops scrambling up in Scotland during MRT Summer Consolidation training weeks 💪 #RAFMRS #SearchAndRescue #AircraftPCIM #SAR #MRT #MountainRescue #WHENSOEVER #AircraftPCIM #NextGenRAF
Leeming MRT are deployed in Scotland to consolidate Summer skills. This is something each MRT does in order to develop skill sets for new Troops, trained Troops, leaders and instructors to facilitate the rescue military and civilian people. #RAFMRS #SearchAndRescue #SAR #MRT
