I am led to believe that both of the pilots were senior QF captains (one of them was on the A380). I am also led to believe that they had successfully delivered ZS-ARV to Australia previously? They were both very seriously injured in the accident and ended up in hospital in induced comas. One, I have heard, ended up with a double amputation. So, perhaps those of you out there who can't understand why they did not give a comprehensive debrief before they were medivaced back to Oz might just give them a little bit of latitude.
