About Channel Islands Air Search Runway Run 2021

Following five hugely successful years under the watchful eye of Crimestoppers the 2021 Runway Run is now fully in aid of Channel Islands Air Search, the Lifeboats' eyes in the sky.  This 5k run is being held as a fun run this year in order to encourage as many participants to enjoy the unique experience of running the Guernsey Airport Runway at night.  Having been postponed in 2020 due to the pandemic, we couldn't wait a whole year to welcome you back so we've moved the run to a spring event to enjoy the May weather this year.

Channel Islands Air Search

Channel Islands Air Search is a voluntary service providing a rapid response airborne search and rescue service in Channel Island waters. We operate on a 24 hour, 365 day basis in all weathers and provide service to the rescue centres of the Channel Islands, the French CROSS JOBERG and CROSS CORSEN centres on the adjoining French coast and, on occasions, the English Coastguards. This area is notorious for strong tides, changeable weather, large seas and submerged reefs. It is also one of Europe's highest density areas for leisure boaters. A yachtsman's paradise but it can be not without its risks. Our aircraft operates in conjunction with Lifeboats, SAR helicopters and other rescue craft. The aircraft is equipped with search radar, night vision, smoke floats, radio homing and loud hailer system, and an air droppable life raft. Our aircraft is operated entirely by volunteer crew. The operational base is Guernsey Airport, where CIAS has its own purpose built hangar.
