foul weather rescue

Postby RitterKreuz » Sat Dec 30, 2006 4:03 pm

has anyone completed this helicopter FSX mission?

I found the capsized yacht, the survivor says his friend was "drifting due west on some debris"

i searched a very tight ladder search pattern west of the yacht. i left the yacht west bound one minute, south bound one minute, north bound two minutes, west bound one minute, south 2 minutes, west 1 minute and so on - 25 miles out to sea!!! without ANY luck of spotting the drifting survivor and no further input from the mission.

Was the guy drifting out to sea at 140 knots?? i have had no luck on 4 seperate attempts at finding this guy.

any help out there with this?
