An aviation adventure short story. The person who receives a distress call is bound to assist, even if they are in a very old aircraft, over a very large ocean, looking for a very small boat.
Flying home from their display seems a perfect time for Jim to train his wife on radio procedures. An SOS on a non-aviation channel was the last thing he expected to hear. The laws of sea and air are clear: the person who receives a distress call is bound to assist. br />
