330 Squadron is a Norwegian search, rescue, and medical helicopter force. They perform a vertical rescue of two stranded mountain climbers from a sheer cliff face. And when a 10-year old girl is lost in mountainous forest, the squadron joins a 350-member search team for two days.
The team searches for an emergency beacon in the North Sea, to fetch a hypothermic, unresponsive boater from a liferaft. They perform a steep-slope pickup of an injured, trapped skier, and search for a 16-year old girl, lost in the mountains, both day and night.
The Squadron team volunteers to attempt a hazardous recovery from a treacherous sheer mountain wall, only to make a shocking discovery. A Russian climbing team videotapes the action. Questions about the mission haunt one team member for a year after the emergency call.
The 330 Squadron transport a critically ill patient between hospitals during snow conditions, introduce some of the engineering and technical staff, and revisit a hairy ocean rescue of an injured tugboat operator during high seas.
The Squadron retrieves a injured paraglider pilot from an icy waterfall, performs training missions, inspects a winter-season base, cleans their machine, and goes into Russian territory for the crew of a cargo ship crushed on coastal rocks.
The team retrieves an injured man from a high-speed single-car wreck, picks up a huntress lost in the mountains, encounters a suspicious fuel leak in their helicopter, and performs the sad task of retrieval of a body from an avalanche.
The 330s engage in more training, and revisit rescuing hundreds from a sinking passenger liner. Two grandparents and a 9-year old are rescued when they're fogged in in rugged terrain. And the 330 crewmembers visit a refueling depot outpost where bears frequently interfere with a family's staple food supply: seals.
The team is called to the scene of a Russian base jumper stranded at 500 feet up a rock face. Two injured boat crewmembers need rescue in high seas. The HRS rescue command center is featured. The sinking of a high speed boat with 80 passengers on board triggers one of Norway's largest ocean rescues, revisited by the crew and affected passengers. And Roy plays guitar.
