Search And Rescue: Swansong
771 Naval Air Squadron has had its final summer of duty ahead of being privatised.
The Royal Navy Search and Rescue squadron celebrated its 76th anniversary this year with a spectacular flypast in the skies above Cornwall.
A formation of six aircraft flew past the county's landmarks to celebrate the occasion.
But it was also a bittersweet day, with the Royal Navy's Sea King helicopters now in their final year of operation before being taken out of service in 2016.
Forces TV's Rebecca Ricks took a look at a swansong summer for Search and Rescue.
