Also I'm quite sure I haven't missed the survivors because of TC because I was scanning the area with binoculars 10 miles before arriving to the scene with low TC speed.
From past experience I know that depending on how long it takes you to reach the area the pilots may have drifted away on the current. I've had this happen, kinda the same situation you mention.
