The new weight limit policy came after the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) warned that rescue winches - which are critical during offshore emergencies - cannot safely lift heavier people.

What?

Why is the solution not to make the rescue winches able to safely lift heavier people? What the hell?

      Yeah sorry we designed this helicopter to be only capable of lifting PRECISELY this weight and now we have framed the problem in a way where the only solution is you must lose weight.

      Do I have a connection with weight loss pharmaceutical companies? Why would you even ask that? I go to the same country club but so what, stay out of my personal business.
