We wanted to give Maurice a shot at getting to Cape Town, and gave him lots of help and space to do so. There came a stage, however, when the status of the equipment on board and his ability to use backups, became a danger to both himself and others.
We suggested he return to Khartoum and have everything fixed, he ignored this and promptly got lost (again) trying to find Gambella (SAR procedures begun) and then again en route Kenya (SAR procedures again begun).
Putting your own life in danger is one thing, creating (avoidable) situations where others might have to put their own lives at risk to save you is another.
