But, forget the Jets and Helicopters.......way too many $$$$

Sailors that were in trouble could use their Sat phones, Cell Phones or SSB to make the call for assistance. Set it up more like a Help Desk......Before calling the CG and declaring an emergency, a way that they could discuss their problem and develop a plan of action.

Call the service "Mama".

rob, while you are reviewing the G650, suggest that you take a look at the Bombardier Global 8000. It would be at the top of my list. After flying on AirTran last week back and forth to SRQ, with very lovely 2 hour stop overs in ATL, I am ready for one of these now! Maybe in my next life
