It should be simple. You fly out, drop a basket and bring these guys home. That’s every pilots mission when he lifts his helo into the air.
But storms so violent they send fear down your spine and memories of friends in the exact same place as you, memories of those friends never coming home, sink their teeth in and refuse to let go.
So when a rescue becomes special, when there’s a twist or two and you swear there were higher forces guiding you along, you don’t take that for granted.
Welcome to Tragedy with a View, when luck against Mother Nature is fought with a Machine.
