| Often it's required to go to the general area where the last mayday perhaps was reported and from there commence search operations, prior to the precise location of that incident. |
| In fact, the helicopter was on site 52 minutes after the initial mayday call. |
| I bit my lip, as surely it can't be good form to do a mayday, even if it's supposedly off any monitored channel. |
| The leader of the 16 kayakers put out two mayday alerts on a VHF radio at 4pm after one of the party capsized. |
| Within moments of the mayday call, the citizens of Hartley Bay, a first nations community, sprang into action. |
| Also like the Air France disaster, the pilots of AirAsia had no time to issue a mayday call. |
