With Typhoon "Lando" now expected to batter parts
of Central and Northern Luzon , the Philippine
Air Force (PAF) has alerted 46 aircraft for possible relief and rescue
missions.
Col. Enrico Canaya, PAF spokesman, said this can be broken
down into 14 rescue helicopters, 27 combat utility helicopters and five airlift
aircraft.
This includes the 505th Search-and-Rescue Group and all PAF
disaster response teams.
"PAF maintains a total of 14 rescue helicopters, 27
utility helicopters and five airlift aircraft deployed all over the country
that may be utilized for humanitarian and disaster response operations when
needed," Canaya said.
