Completely agree. When he said time whilst under command of the ATC in this
situation is paid for, I almost died. I don't know why someone would expect
that, but apparently some people do, so they pay it. You don't expect
payment if you stop to help a stranded motorist, and the camaraderie of the
air surely is stronger than that.
