A Philippine Navy chopper which was part of the search and retrieval operation for the ill-fated plane of late DILG Secretary Jesse Robredo made an emergency landing in the shoreline of Sorsogon on Tuesday. See attached photo.
All four (4) navy personnel were safe including one photographer who captured this photo. This incident may further pose the capability problems that our Philippine navy is facing for decades now. Though we are currently making a fast pace progress in upgrading our Philippine Navy hardware, we are still using old and problematic equipment which is the cause of numerous casualties of our navy personnel.
When are we going to retire these pieces of junk equipment? In my humble opinion, we should have sent these to our local museum long time ago.
