I am very well aware of the contents of your enclosure.
What you seem to have overlooked is that Kirk had "left" the Rally by that stage and was expected to be heading North, back to Khartoum. Also he had switched off his tracker beacon from the 23rd November onward.
He then disappeared, causing much concern to the organisers, then reappeared at Gambela, having apparently put down in open country for the night, or so I have been informed..
Following the VAR's release, he then disappeared for a second time, was overdue (triggering, again, a series of emergency actions from VAR) and, it subsequently transpired, had put down again, this time in South Sudan, following an alleged engine failure. The third so far since coasting in, I believe.
