A crewman on a fishing boat was injured and needs to be treated in a hospital right away. You are with a Coast Guard station nearest to the boat, but you are 400 miles away. The boat travels at a rate of 10 mph. It is 5:30 A. M. You have a helicopter that can hold 6600 lbs. of fuel, consumes 1200 pounds of fuel an hour, and travels 150 mph. However, you need to save a minimum 1 hour worth of fuel for landing problems at the Coast Guard station and you need to have 30 minutes' worth of fuel to remove the crewman from the boat. You have to create a plan for extracting the crew member. When would you leave?
