Operation Weald Shows Off Its Eyes In The Sky

814 Naval Air Squadron has been providing the invaluble eyes-in-the-sky for Operation Weald, the UK's search and rescue mission in the Mediterranean.

They deployed with HMS Bulwark in May and have already flown dozens of sorties searching for migrants drifting off the coast of Libya.
