Don't know if anyone else has seen this article or not: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090216/ap_on_re_eu/eu_britain_s ub_collision . It's about a British and French nuclear sub that collided underwater. In this case there was only minor damage to the subs.
What if we did a spin on this for a rescue. Maybe to countries who don't have the best relationship, have submarines that collide and possibly one or both of the subs are seriously damaged. Perhaps it even occurs in an area that is suppose to be an neutral zone (the same idea of a no-fly zone but underwater).The military for the one country doesn't want the other country to send military or rescue personnel to enter the area and vice versa. IR is called to assist as a neutral party to prevent hostilities from escalating. This would be a way to let Gordon and our new aquanaut in the spotlight for a rescue.

This isn't a rescue scenario, but related. What if there were two rescues that overlapped, but required different machines to effect the rescues? Like the mine collapse and an ocean rescue. That would need TB2 to leave the pod for the first one, fly back to get the pod with the tools for the second one, then fly to the second rescue. Precious time would be lost.
Or even two rescues at nearly the same time, but far apart that necessitated the same equipment, like rescue calls from two oceans (Pacific & Atlantic, Atlantic and Indian, etc.).
At some point, someone could comment on this, suggesting a need for a few smaller pods and equipment to go in them, and a smaller version of TB2 to transport the pods. These could be kept, perhaps, on Mateo Island.
Food for thought for a future post or three.

Seeing as the flight with the Panda's was sabotaged - the station or possibly the vehicle being assembled would be a likely target too.

I'm not sure WG would dare, right now. They would have to set up the 'emergency' in an isolated area so there would be no witnesses, or the negative publicity would be to great. Especially if people realized the rescue had been set up. I'm sure the resort manager has had a lot to say already.
Possibly WG will have a 'strike force' set up to go after IR at the next emergency and try to arrest them there.
However, I could see someone like that idiot WG agent setting up an accident without getting approval from anyone higher up. Or an inside group of WG urging him on to get information even if the 'arrest' doesn't work.
"Should you or any of your men be caught or killed, the Secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions"
I bet Jeff will now be insisting all communications between IR and anyone else are recorded.
