Iceland’s Ghost Planes
Iceland makes it very explicit that emergency assistance is free of charge and that if you're in trouble, you should call without hesitation (they even have an app where you click a button and your position is transmitted to the SAR center).<p>This policy saves lives, but unfortunately there's a tendency these days in some countries to back-charge for SAR ops when they are a result of irresponsible choices like many mentioned in the article.<p>Thumbs up for Iceland!
