The devs told me it works this way: You're supposed to find a little guy floating around or watch him float from the sky when the aircraft is shot down. Then you sail close to him, use binocs to point at him and press the button on taskbar with a lifesaving device icon. You have to look around and the crew will spot them. Survivors die with time, and there may be more than one pilot in the water where the icon indicates.
