The island might be green and pleasant inland, but around its steep and jagged edges, it is so clear that it is essentially an old volcano.

So certainly as we came in, we, we, we were thinking, wow, it's sort of...

It looked like a moonscape, and you thought there was no civilization there.

And it's quite a sh-- I think it's a short runway, isn't it? Because I know they have problems with sometimes with the wind, they have to allow a certain amount of time of fuel for them to fly back if they can't land because it's certain conditions and certain planes and certain pilots-

It begs belief from, from my point of view.

We would come back into the office, having been out taking statements, and we'd then have debrief with our, um, SIO.

He'd read our statements, and each day we'd say, "I can't believe this." And each day we'd come back and we'd have another one where we think, "This is worse." And it was, it was, we were all both upset and angry, and we were also disappointed and angry with the fact that there were so many people that felt what we were doing was almost a witch hunt.

If this was in the UK and this was happening in a hospital in your, uh, county or in your area, people would be in uproar about it, and they would want action taken.

Do you remember what you were thinking on that flight?

It was just like, is this real? I think at that point we were still sort of in a bit of a daze thinking, hold on a minute, two weeks ago we were just bumbling along doing COVID work locally and now we're on a flight to some island that we've looked up now and realise it's only something like seven miles long in the South Atlantic to do some work that sounds very interesting but still unsure of what to expect.

very short period of time you think oh perhaps that someone is supervisor or someone in a senior position hadn't had the opportunity to intervene but he was there for five years so I find it actually incredible that nobody saw fit to actually have some sort of balancing checks and and you know a periodic review of his work and just let him run it begs belief from my point of view
