Irish Coastguard to continue search for missing crewmen of Rescue 116

Crewmen Paul Ormsby and Ciaran Smith have yet to be found since the helicopter crashed off Blackrock Island one month ago

The Irish Coast Guard has vowed that searches will continue for the missing crew members from Rescue 116. 

This Easter, marks the one-month anniversary of the crash, and a statement posted on the Irish Coast Guard website says 'we will not leave you, help is on the way'. 

Yesterday an interim report recommended that route guides used by search and rescue helicopters be reviewed, following revelations that the warning system did not have data related to Blackrock Island where the helicopter crashed.
