"...an early decision was taken on the Africa trip for her to carry a passenger because there was insufficient payload capacity in the supporting aircraft to carry everyone and the filming equipment."

This is not correct.

There was plenty of capacity in the C208 for everyone and everything.

Additionally, the "early decision" was made by Tracey, without consultation with anyone else (apart from Ewald). Myself, the film crew, director - we were all taken completely by surprise.

Continuing the correction theme. Whilst I very definitely had a falling out with Tracey (!), it was not a commercial falling out as I never had any commercial relationship with her.

The only commercial relationship we had was with the production company. We did have a problem after the journey when they refused to reimburse us for for the money we had spent getting the Libyan visas "because we never went to Libya and so didn't use them". Despite explaining at length that this is not how it works (!), we were forced to take legal action. They then paid up (plus costs).
