A diver on the pier had been taken ill and with a possible diving related illness, so the male was to be flown to the decompression chamber in Poole.
The Air Ambulance " Pegasus" is always a popular sight with the public but landing in the middle of Prince Albert Gardens requires a clear space so the Coastguard team provided safety cover to ensure the aircraft had a safe operating area.
Due to the down wash from the rotors the pilot requested the public to be outside the walls so we thank the public for their cooperation for a few minutes.
With the patient flown to Poole , the team liaised with the divers colleagues about the dive which the Dive doctors require for treatment.
