Griffo - Hospitals will not release info on patients condition unless you can prove you're a very close relative.
These blokes will be in "critical" condition for quite a few days to come. With bad burns and impact injuries there comes a period of several days afterwards, where a patients life hangs in the balance - and even the best of medical attention can only do so much.
They're lucky in that Dr Fiona Woods is the worlds top burns specialist, and no doubt she will be advising, or even attending to these blokes.
I wish them all the best for their recovery, which won't be a short or easy period.
I'm getting some real bad vibes about small composite aircraft right about now. Yes, metal ones burn, too - but these composite ones are turning out to be real Ronsons.
