    An MH-60S Seahawk helicopter from the Naval Air Station (NAS) Patuxent River "SAR Dogs" unit scans the coastline during a challenging L00A qualification flight. The aircrew was tasked with locating a simulated crash site with no prior location data. This unscripted scenario is a critical component of the qualification process, ensuring the SAR team can effectively respond to distress calls when precise location data is unavailable.
