WEBVTT 00:11.940 --> 00:14.850 Mhm Mhm . Mhm 00:17.840 --> 00:19.550 Oh 00:27.840 --> 00:30.200 hi there , voting friends . I am BM two 00:30.210 --> 00:32.432 Justin right and I am the coxon of this 00:32.432 --> 00:35.660 45 ft search and rescue response boat . 00:36.240 --> 00:39.440 Your best bet for survival is a GPS 00:39.440 --> 00:42.170 position passed over the radio or an 00:42.180 --> 00:44.660 EMp herb or PLB that broadcasts your 00:44.660 --> 00:47.250 location without a GPS coordinate . 00:47.260 --> 00:49.482 We'll have to conduct a search based on 00:49.482 --> 00:51.593 a verbal description . Stay with your 00:51.593 --> 00:53.816 boat even if it capsizes so that we can 00:53.816 --> 00:57.750 see you on our radar at 00:57.750 --> 01:01.330 night without some kind of light . Your 01:01.330 --> 01:02.886 chances of survival go down 01:02.886 --> 01:05.230 dramatically . Carry flares , carry a 01:05.230 --> 01:08.770 flashlight , carry a glow stick but 01:08.770 --> 01:10.659 make sure you have something that 01:10.659 --> 01:12.770 lights up so that we can see you from 01:12.770 --> 01:14.770 far off . Hi , I'm Lieutenant kevin 01:14.770 --> 01:16.770 White one of the duties standing 65 01:16.770 --> 01:18.770 pilots at night . We fly with night 01:18.770 --> 01:21.103 vision goggles otherwise known as M . B . 01:21.103 --> 01:23.270 G . S . So when we're called for a SAR 01:23.270 --> 01:23.270 case or we have training flights at 01:23.270 --> 01:25.214 night , we wear these night vision 01:25.214 --> 01:27.214 goggles which help us pilots see at 01:27.214 --> 01:29.159 night . There are white phosphorus 01:29.159 --> 01:31.214 technology that allows us to pick up 01:31.214 --> 01:33.437 brighter senses of light and be able to 01:33.437 --> 01:35.659 see at night . What really helps us out 01:35.659 --> 01:37.492 is uh lights , different kind of 01:37.492 --> 01:39.492 reflective material . And what this 01:39.492 --> 01:41.659 does is it picks up extra bright light 01:41.659 --> 01:43.881 so that we're able to see either people 01:43.881 --> 01:45.992 or boats when we're flying for active 01:45.992 --> 01:48.103 star cases . What really helps us out 01:48.103 --> 01:50.270 if you have protective gear on or even 01:50.270 --> 01:52.270 flares . Those are super beneficial 01:52.270 --> 01:54.326 because the flame that comes through 01:54.326 --> 01:56.492 the light is picked up and it's pretty 01:56.492 --> 01:58.700 bright for us to see . We also use on 01:58.700 --> 02:01.030 board the aircraft is our spotlights . 02:01.370 --> 02:03.703 So when we're doing the sweeping search , 02:03.703 --> 02:05.759 we can , when we get that reflective 02:05.759 --> 02:07.814 light is amplified through our night 02:07.814 --> 02:10.037 vision goggles . So your probability of 02:10.037 --> 02:11.926 survival is greatly enhanced when 02:11.926 --> 02:14.037 you're wearing the proper equipment , 02:14.037 --> 02:16.259 such as the protective vest . It's also 02:16.259 --> 02:18.314 important to emphasize that our Mdgs 02:18.314 --> 02:20.203 don't pick up certain kind of LED 02:20.203 --> 02:22.370 lights and it's critical to have Coast 02:22.370 --> 02:24.481 Guard approved lights anytime you are 02:24.481 --> 02:24.000 shopping around for lights and anytime 02:24.000 --> 02:26.111 you do anticipate going boating after 02:26.111 --> 02:25.950 dark .
