Abstract
Zrakoplovna potraga i spašavanje ( SAR ) je operativa traganje i pružanja hitne pomoći osobama koje su u nevolji ili neposrednoj opasnosti, traganje za zrakoplovom ili helikopterom nakon nesreće te spašavanje posade, putnika ili trećih lica. Službe SAR-a aktivne su 24 sata na dan. Operacije potrage i spašavanje su neizostavne prilikom nesreća. Zahvaljujući službama SAR-a mjesto nesreće se pronalaze u najkraćem mogućem vremenskom periodu te se unesrećene osobe prevoze u najkraćem mogućem periodu do najbližeg kliničko-bolničkog centra. Globalno važna organizacija u čijoj je nadležnosti regulativa zrakoplovnih operacija potrage i spašavanja je Međunarodna organizacija za civilno zrakoplovstvo ( ICAO ). Osnivanjem te organizacije današnje operacije potrage i spašavanja sustavno su regulirane na međunarodnoj razini. Dokument koji donosi standarde i preporučene prakse potrage i spašavanja je Aneks 12 Čikaške konvencije. Za potrebe potrage i spašavanja nekonvencionalna sredstva imaju gotovo nezamjenjiva svojstva. Zahvaljujući svojim performansama vertikalnog polijetanja i slijetanja te lebdenja, operacije potrage i spašavanja dobile su drugu dimenziju.Search and Rescue (SAR) is operations of a search and emergency response to people in distress or immediate danger, as well as an aircraft or helicopter search after an accident, and rescue crew, passengers, or third parties. SAR services are active 24 hours a day. Search and rescue operations are inescapable in case of an air accident. Thanks to SAR services, the accident site is found in the shortest time possible and the injured person is transported in the shortest time possible to the nearest hospital. A globaly important organizations, witch is responsible for regulations of search and rescue operations, is the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). By establishing this organization today's search and rescue operations, meaning are systematical regulated on international level. The document that brings standards and recommended search and rescue practices is Annex 12 to Chicago Convention. For search and rescue purposes, unconventional means have irreplaceable properties. Thanks to its performance of vertical take-off and landing and hovering, search and rescue operations gained a second dimension
