Thank you. My name is Don Cooper. I'm the deputy site manager with IMP Aerospace. IMP maintains Canada's fleet of CH-149 Cormorant aircraft in support of search and rescue operations and has done so since 2001. IMP takes exception to some of the comments made here today and intends to appear before the committee at a later date to make representations in its efforts to clarify the comments, which we believe do not accurately reflect the SAR operations.
On January 31st, 2011. See this statement in context.
