		Their efforts to locate Nobile's party - by now drifting with the ice - were, however, largely unco-ordinated, and nine of the rescuers lost their own lives, most notably Amundsen, whose aircraft disappeared over the Arctic Ocean.
		Nobile was then picked up by a Swedish pilot, but the aeroplane crashed when the Swede returned for the others and he had himself to be rescued.
		Nobile, by comparison, was vilified - not least for having agreed to be rescued before his crew - and he ultimately emigrated to Russia.

		Tragically, although Nobile and seven of the Italia's 15-man crew were rescued, the only casualties among the would-be rescuers were Amundsen, Dietrichson and their four-man crew, whose aircraft crashed en route to Spitzbergen without even reaching the search area.
		Nobile complained that Amundsen had contributed nothing to the trip, and its success had been due entirely to his airship, and his skill at commanding it.
		One mechanic died in the crash, but the other 10 survivors, including Nobile with a broken arm and leg, were forced to shelter in a tent, where they sent out desperate calls for help on an emergency radio transmitter salvaged from the wreck.
