This is a great movie,Yesterday was Christmas,myfamily sat around the table talking how thankful we were God had blessed this year. My daughter had a major stroke last January, she's recovered most abilities, but her right hand and speach very slow, she's 46.she took an angel flight then, the year before her partner had a major heart attack, just 6 months before that,he too took an angel flight,and a year and a half ago I took the same flight after my kidneys failed. 6 of us in the room 3 angel flights and we were all thankful for the pilots,nurses and emts, but God deserves all the credit! We had a very thankful Christmas, BUT last summer we had a bad storm in Alaska an an angel flight went down with the patient, all 5 perished. It broke our hearts. God bless all who put thier lives on the line, bless you all this Glorious season, may God grant us 2023 a God year

Being diabetic we eat very little meat except fish because we have natural fish out the back door, cutting back on all carbs and the rest is veggies, but we all have auto immune issues, I have Lupus R.A. diabetes and high blood pressure. Most of my problems are from what my mother did during her pregnancy. The dr.xrayed my mother every week. I shouldn't be here. My ex same boat. Didn't realize we could pass on most of our health problems. My daughters health problems came from smoking, which she quit cold the day of her stroke. We actually eat better then most,but being on 17 different meds doesn't help at all. And we are all working on lots of out doir activities minus snow shoveling. Thank you all for the positive thoughts

I too am a med flight RN. Been so for 27 years now. I have been in one Medflight crash. I was at night and still today I don't really remember the first of it because it became like slow motion for a few seconds. Things went fly by my head and I felt my self hit hard and the lights went out from there. I was out of business for about 8 months. The PT survived as well as the rest of the crew but our Pilot did not. I am back to work now and still enjoy my job everyday.

This movie is a little too fictional. What the crew pulled out of the cockpit was the block box and they are not black. The ELT is over the pilots left shoulder, not connected to anything and are yellow. They are pretty indestructible. it would have to take a nose dive straight down to destroy an ELT.

Toward the end of WW2, my father survived his ninth serious bomber aircrash. The only other survivor was the pilot. They lost touch after the war, until Snowy appeared on 'What's My Line?' I was seven or eight at the time. He was flying mercy flights in Australia. My father was able to make contact through the BBC...then we heard that Snowy had been killed on a mercy flight...True angels.

FAA and NTSB rules say you must check the ELT at specific intervals. Also the pilot should have made sure it was working B4 taking off in those conditions. Also he should have had flares on board. They didn't cover any of this in the movie:( I flew small planes for 20 years.

Isn´t there a special luminous paint planes can use to enhance the chance of being spotted?

[@jannawalters232]

Sure should be!

[@tonyprice1786]

The whole plane could have been brightly painted- often done on rescue helicopters especially those operating in snowy mountainous areas, and then of course there could be back-up orange smoke which dyes the snow, and signal flares to back-up the EPIRB. Those things take up little space.

A good movie, showing the resourcefulness and skill of the people caught in a dire situation, and having to use their heads and training to pull through. The snow scenes are quite convincing enough for me. Also a good lesson on checking the emergency gear and thinking about other equipment which is light and useful on hazardous flights- like flares and coloured smoke. as well as the colour of the plane when likely to be operating in snowy conditions.

[@elainemarten2147]

and warmer blankets, they should have been wearing boots in climates like that (I live in 6-8 months of winter and it can get down to -55C or even colder some times, and you wear good boots, have good gloves, heavy coats (not like the paramedic), and I have warmer emergency equipment in my car than they did on the flight! As well as emergency food supply even if its only protein bars or something

[@tonyprice1786]

@@elainemarten2147 That is cccccold! In my part of New Zealand we have had settling snow every 40 years or so, occasional frosts, but the temperature can drop very quickly, and dressing for the worst - and watching the weather forecast - is essential. Driving rain and 5 degrees when you're only wearing a t-shirt and shorts can be deadly quite quickly. Looks like you know how to survive severe cold- these people could have done with some good advice! Cheers.

It was actually pretty bad. It was very superficial and almost no worthy dialogue. They changed the characters, and made the paramedic out as a wimp. The real paramedic is on record as being disappointed that he, a man who puts himself at risk to save people, was turned into a whiny wimp in this movie. You'd never have a nurse claiming she won't let the child die repeatedly, they would NEVER say that.

I suspect not- my ex did Angel Flights as a volunteer pilot from the early 90s to at least 2010s, and the med teams are very intensely prepared as well as prepping pts and adults as to flight details prior, AND mandatory emergency and survival gear due to most flights being to and over remote areas in California.

No, it was the resourcefulness of the doctor and the others, looking after the girl, exposing the colours of the plane to show up in the snow. Then off to hospital- not church- for the girl to be fixed up, with dedicated pilots. Relying on any god who according to your logic created the situation in the first place, is not going to achieve anything.
