I agree.

What did the CP expect the fellow to do? - Of course you respond if you can help!

Kudos to the FI for a job well done. The decision to reposition and refuel seems to be good airmanship rather than perhaps attempt to return to base with low fuel.

The CP is very wrong and deserves a severe attitude adjustment. Unless there are circumstances of which we are not aware his idea of not responding is shocking.

A Mayday is a call for immediate help not a press release!

Just out of curiousity - how much flying time are we talking about.
