Form another angle, I read an article in an aviation magazine written by a fellow who had a heart attack while flying a Cessna by himself.
He lived 80 or 90 miles south of Indianapolis and was flying to the Indianapolis airport to pick up his brother. He was about half way there when the pain from the heart attack hit him, and he recognized it for what it was.
He said his first thought was to get back on the ground as fast as he could. Then the pain eased off and his second thought was when he did get back on the ground it had better be near medical facilities.
He hung on to Indianapolis. He'd radioed ahead and an ambulance was waiting for him when he taxied clear of the runway. His brother was there, and he said he remembered giving the keys to the airplane to his brother and telling him to take care of it. They loaded him into the ambulance, and he said the last thing he remembered before he passed out was a cute blond EMT screaming at the driver, Hit it! This is a real heart attack!
The doctors found a 95% blockage in one artery and put a stent in it. The fellow said 30 days later a flight surgeon cleared him to fly again.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
