fires are good. make one in the australian outback and eventually
someone will show up to find out why it got lit. ....thats the theory.
if you really want to survive carry water.
a sheet of transparent plastic over a hole full of scrub with a stone
in the middle with a can underneath will collect enough water over
time in the sun to keep you alive.
when I am travelling over the gaffa I carry all that stuff ....but I
attend to the maintenance first so that the aircraft will never give
me a problem.
