Yesterday the Portuguese Airforce left from Flores Island to rescue a member crew of the big container ship MAERSK DUNBAR with breath problems located at the time around 300 nautical miles from Faial Island . Is known here that the man is from Lithuania and was transported by one of the helicopters MERLIN EH-101 and assisted by a medic crew that was on the helicopter and transported to Terceira island to be assisted at the local hospital.
