like we're lost to me.
We're not lost.
All I need to do is
just find a clearing,
and I'll know
where I'm going.
Where did you learn
to do that?
Cub Scouts.
That doesn't fill me
with confidence.
"That doesn't
fill me with confidence. "
Zach, what are you doing?
He's thirsty.
He's spilling it
all over the place.
He's a dog.
Zach!
Come on, boy.
- Zach.
- We'll find the lake.
We'd better.
They're here, Robert.
Hi. I'm Robert Wade.
Captain Walker,
Mountain Search and Rescue.
This is Sergeant McCoy.
- Hey.
- Hi.
This is Bill Peters,
my aviation manager.
- Pleased to meet you.
- Hi, Bill.
So what can you tell us?
Well, our best guess
is that the plane
went down
about 50 miles from here,
to the south, obviously.
Our problem is
that we can't tell
how far off course the pilot
might have strayed.
So, "best guess," does that mean
that you can't pinpoint
exactly where the plane
went down?
We could,
depending on the ELT.
That's the emergency
locator transmitter.
It sends out an automatic
distress signal.
It's g-force-activated on
impact.
The newer ELTs are digital.
They carry detailed information
about the aircraft and the owner,
and they give
precise GPS coordinates.
The exact location
can sometimes be pinpointed
in as little as five minutes.
Well, Charlie had one of those
on his plane, didn't he?
No, Robert, we're still using
the analog ELTs.
What?
That technology is outdated.
The signal is no longer
detectable by satellite,
only ground-based receivers,
and that's if they're near one.
Why didn't you upgrade
the planes, Bill?
I've been fighting with Ackerman
on this for years.
The analog ELTs are still legal.
You know the old man.
for new ones
until he's forced to.
Well, you should have
come to me.
It wouldn't
have been any use.
Gentlemen, please.
I'm sorry, Bill.
I know it's not your fault.
Okay.
Charlie and the kids...
what are their chances?
Well, our best-case scenario
is that they had
a successful water landing.
We know they've got
enough supplies in the plane
to last them
until we find them.
But if they went down
in the forest...
well, sometimes
there are survivors.
We're establishing a base camp
about a mile from here,
we're gathering a team
to coordinate the search effort,
and a helicopter is being
brought in from Goose Bay.
Okay, how long
is that going to take?
Three to four hours.
My kids are out there.
- I understand, Mr. Wade...
- No, you don't.
Now, I have a chopper here.
It'll be dark soon,
and our helicopter
has thermal-imaging
equipment.
We can see people on the ground
right through the trees.
