Bathers on Levante beach in Benidorm were taken by surprise when observing the Maritime Rescue helicopter emergency services in practice.
Members of Salvamento Marítimo in the Valencian Community have been carrying out practise periodically, including at the Portosenso marina in Altea.
The practices carried out by the helicopter Helimer de Salvamento Maritimo was in collaboration of the Salvamento de Benidorm RA boat along with the support of a Civil Guard patrol boat.
The Helicopter rescue of the crew, or the evacuation of one of its members, is a risky manoeuvre with Maritime Rescue professionals using advanced technology during weekly exercise operations (Hi-Line), during day and night time.

With Hall of Fame trainers Todd Pletcher, Steve Asmussen and Jerry Hollendorfer – along with future Hall of Famer Chad Brown – all having a formidable presence on the Monmouth Park backstretch this summer it s easy to forget that the race for leading trainer honors still goes through Kelly Breen.
It did last year, when the 52-year-old Breen easily captured his third Monmouth Park trainer s title.

Just the other week, I won Celebrity Mastermind. I’d come second back in 2003, stumped by the question ‘how many legs does a lobster have?’ (Ten! Who knew!) and it always rankled. So to win this time was a boon. My specialist subject was Women of Imperial Rome. The producers and my fellow contestants were bemused: why?
Ever since I was very young and snuck into the TV room to catch my parents watching the BBC One series I Claudius, I have been smitten with early Imperial Rome. That’s Augustus to Nero Caesar if you want to nail it down specifically. Everything about I Claudius called out to me and piqued my interest. I wasn’t allowed to watch the programme – far too adult – so when I reached the ripe old age of 10, I dug out the Robert Graves’s novels I Claudius and Claudius the God from my dad’s office and devoured them.
