The stupidity of our various grubby Govt's knows no bounds as to how efficient they are at making people's lives miserable! It's tragic that the poor guy had to go thru all that cause of the fear that exists out there!

Article says "Angel Flight Australia chair and pilot Owen Crees personally flew Mr Cioffi and said "it was a pleasure to bring Daniel home". yet twice in the Adelaide Advertiser it has cited the pilot's name as Paul Michel.
Just curious how much would it cost Angel Flight to charter a Chieftain to come all that way?

Crees flew the Broken Hill to Adelaide leg in a Mooney. The other pilot flew the Brisbane to Broken Hill leg. The pilots donate their aircraft and time. Angel Flight pay for the fuel.

Cloudee, the photo in the Adelaide Advertiser shows them getting out of a Chieftain. The photo of the Chieftain pilot does not match the photo of Crees.

The Advertiser photo is not at Adelaide. I'd say Broken Hill. VH-DEP is the aircraft. You can check where it's been on FR24. It flew from Brisbane to Broken Hill and back. The media are never too fussy about facts when covering aviation. The Mooney (VH-FAF) was shown on TV landing at Adelaide.
