Helicopter duo plucked from liferaft after Antarctic crash
In this extract, the writer gives an account of how two explorers are rescued after their
helicopter crashes in the Antarctic.
Their last expedition ended in farce when the Russians threatened to send in military
planes to intercept them as they tried to cross into Siberia via the icebound Bering Strait.
Yesterday a new adventure undertaken by British explorers Steve Brooks and Quentin
Smith almost led to tragedy when their helicopter plunged into the sea off Antarctica.
The men were plucked from the icy water by a Chilean naval ship after a nine-hour 5
rescue which began when Mr Brooks contacted his wife, Jo Vestey, on his satellite
phone asking for assistance. The rescue involved the Royal Navy, the RAF and British
coastguards.
Last night there was resentment in some quarters that the men’s adventure had cost the
taxpayers of Britain and Chile tens of thousands of pounds. 10
Experts questioned the wisdom of taking a small helicopter — the four-seater Robinson
R44 has a single engine — into such a hostile environment.
There was also confusion about what exactly the men were trying to achieve. A website
set up to promote the Bering Strait expedition claims the team were planning to fly from
the north to south pole in their “trusty helicopter”. 15
But Ms Vestey claimed she did not know what the pair were up to, describing them as
“boys messing about with a helicopter”.
The drama began at around 1am British time when Mr Brooks, 42, and 40-year-old Mr
Smith, also known as Q, ditched into the sea 100 miles off Antarctica, about 36 miles
north of Smith Island, and scrambled into their liferaft. 20
Mr Brooks called his wife in London on his satellite phone. She said: “He said they were
both in the liferaft but were okay and could I call the emergency people?”
Meanwhile, distress signals were being beamed from the ditched helicopter and from Mr
Brooks’ Breitling emergency watch, a wedding present.
The signals from the aircraft were deciphered by Falmouth1 coastguard and passed on to 25
the rescue coordination centre at RAF Kinloss in Scotland.
The Royal Navy’s ice patrol ship, HMS Endurance, which was 180 miles away surveying
uncharted waters, began steaming towards the scene and dispatched its two Lynx
helicopters.
One was driven back because of poor visibility but the second was on its way when the 30
men were picked up by a Chilean naval vessel at about 10.20am British time.
Though the pair wore survival suits and the weather at the spot where they ditched was
clear, one Antarctic explorer told Mr Brooks’ wife it was “nothing short of a miracle” that
they had survived.

Both men are experienced adventurers. Mr Brooks, a property developer from London, 35
has taken part in expeditions to 70 countries in 15 years. He has trekked solo to Everest
base camp and walked barefoot for three days in the Himalayas. He has negotiated the
white water rapids of the Zambezi river by kayak and survived a charge by a silver back
gorilla in the Congo. He is also a qualified mechanical engineer and pilot.
He and his wife spent their honeymoon flying the helicopter from Alaska to Chile. The 40
16,000-mile trip took three months.
Mr Smith, also from London, claims to have been flying since the age of five. He has
twice flown a helicopter around the globe and won the world freestyle helicopter flying
championship.
Despite their experience, it is not the first time they have hit the headlines for the wrong 45
reasons.
In April, Mr Brooks and another explorer, Graham Stratford, were poised to become the
first to complete a crossing of the 56-mile wide frozen Bering Strait between the US and
Russia in an amphibious vehicle, Snowbird VI, which could carve its way through ice floes
and float in the water in between. 50
But they were forced to call a halt after the Russian authorities told them they would
scramble military helicopters to lift them off the ice if they crossed the border.
Ironically, one of the aims of the expedition, for which Mr Smith provided air back-up,
was to demonstrate how good relations between east and west had become.
The wisdom of the team’s latest adventure was questioned by, among others, Günter 55
Endres, editor of Jane’s Helicopter Markets and Systems, who said: “I’m surprised they
used the R44. I wouldn’t use a helicopter like that to go so far over the sea. It sounds as if
they were pushing it to the maximum”.
A spokesman for the pair said it was not known what had gone wrong. The flying
conditions had been “excellent”. 60
The Ministry of Defence said the taxpayer would pick up the bill, as was normal in rescues
in the UK and abroad. The spokesperson said it was “highly unlikely” it would recover any
of the money.
Last night the men were on their way to the Chilean naval base Eduardo Frei, where HMS
Endurance was to pick them up. Ms Vestey said: “They have been checked and appear to 65
be well. I don’t know what will happen to them once they have been picked up by HMS
Endurance — they’ll probably have their bottoms kicked and be sent home the long
way”.
