00:01Alright, take it easy.
00:02I can't take it easy!
00:03Oh, shit, shit, shit!
00:11Mr. Guy?
00:12Joe.
00:13Are you sure you're okay?
00:14You alright to go call for help?
00:15When did you talk to him last?
00:16Not since he left.
00:17Who's this?
00:18It's Pete.
00:19Pete, Pete.
00:21Hey.
00:22Hey.
00:23Joe!
00:24No!
00:26Oh, my leg's stuck.
00:27Owen, I'm not gonna lie to you, mate.
00:29It's gonna hurt like hell.
00:31It's gonna get you breathing again.
00:35Um, Anna.
00:36My kids were on the bus.
00:37Their names are Poppy and Joe.
00:39Mum, where's Joey?
00:40Is he with you?
00:41Joey!
00:42Joe?
00:43Come on, darling.
00:44Open your eyes.
00:45The only way to free you
00:47is to remove your lower leg.
00:51Tay, Tay.
00:52Oh, my God, what happened?
00:53Taylor, you're going to need surgery.
00:55But what about the baby?
00:57What?
00:58Someone's gonna have to stay behind.
00:59Poppy, Taylor, and the driver will go.
01:01I just...
01:02I think it's the wrong call.
01:03No!
01:04No, you can't just leave him here!
01:05Hey.
01:06Backup's here, okay?
01:11Time of death.
01:129.36pm.
01:13Police have released Kingsley bus driver Owen Tidwell on bail after he was charged with causing death by dangerous driving.
01:25Outside court today, Anna Galanis, the mother of two victims, including Joe Galanis, who died at the scene, criticised the medical response.
01:40My son was left to die because they saved the driver responsible for this crash instead.
01:55So, did you get your results?
01:56Yep.
01:57Turns out I'm one kidney lighter and one human heavier.
02:00And did the nephrologist say how the function is with you?
02:03It's fine.
02:04Spoken to Cameron yet?
02:05Would you at least let me get on the plane before we start with the interrogation, Pete?
02:10Oh.
02:13Tay Tay!
02:14Welcome back!
02:15Hey Nigel.
02:17Ah, and this must be Peter Pan returning to Neverland.
02:22Yeah.
02:23Oh, ah, Nigel.
02:24Nigel.
02:25Oh, Nigel.
02:26Tiki.
02:27Bit of an in-joke.
02:32You know you don't have to move home for me.
02:34I'm not moving back.
02:35I'm just helping out on backfield for a bit.
02:38Hmm.
02:39This means everyone's forgiven you?
02:40Oh, not likely.
02:41Hmm.
02:42What?
02:43What's that?
02:44Well, everyone was just a bit miffed that you never came back.
02:47That's putting it pretty lightly.
02:48Yeah?
02:49No one ever said anything to me.
02:51Yeah, well, you actually have to speak to people to hear them say something.
02:55Cool beans.
02:56We ready to roll?
02:57Yeah.
02:58Cabin prep for take off.
03:08How are those cobwebs?
03:09Like a haunted house.
03:10Are you going to crush it?
03:11Crush.
03:12I said crush.
03:13How are you feeling about Pete?
03:14Just like working with any other fifo nurse.
03:15Hmm.
03:16Good luck.
03:17You're not going to need it.
03:18Hmm.
03:19You got this.
03:20All right.
03:21Who's ready to get back in the virtual sky?
03:22Let's do this.
03:23Okay, so I've reviewed the aircraft, weather and flight plan, fuel and oil sufficient, radio
03:44working.
03:45Okay.
03:46Chaffee, Broken Hill, FD281, rolling runway 23, Broken Hill.
03:51Okay.
03:52Kill it.
03:53What?
03:54Why?
03:55Missed anything?
03:56Um.
03:57Oh.
03:58Auto feather.
03:59Bugger.
04:00It's been a year.
04:01Takes time.
04:02No, it takes not making dumb mistakes.
04:03That's just...
04:04When I came back after my knee surgery, I failed soon three times, all right?
04:09Go easy on yourself.
04:10Sorry to interrupt.
04:11She's here.
04:12Hmm.
04:13This new base is like a rabbit warren.

05:07Yeah, that's Matthew to you, mate.
05:09Welcome back.
05:11Welcome back to State.
05:12Me too.
05:13Okay, we've got three Epps to catch up on.
05:14I have every flavour of ice cream and tea I could find in Broken Hill.
05:18Please, please don't tell me who got voted off.
05:20Well, we can't.
05:21Because we don't know.
05:22Because we've been waiting for you.
05:23Oh, God.
05:24You're actually dying.
05:25This is a lovely heat.
05:27Uh, I don't really know what's happening, but yeah.
05:29Matty, Nige, you ready for Osborne Downs?
05:32Yeah, Captain.
05:33Yep.
05:34So then I'm with...
05:35Pete, how's that wrist?
05:36Uh, yeah, fine.
05:37It's sprained.
05:38Well, better be, because we've got a bariatric at Kerrville.
05:40Abdo pain and fever.
05:41Grab the auntie's wheels up in 10.
05:43Tay?
05:44Yeah.
05:45Welcome home, mate.
05:46Thanks.
05:47Hope you remember all the safety features of the cabin.
05:49Yeah.
05:52Patient's Andrea Purvis, approximately 115 kilos.
05:55She phoned with vomiting and sharp pain under the ribs.
05:59Andy, I know her.
06:00She was feeling really good last summer, Zora.
06:02A year ago.
06:03She had gastric bypass last month.
06:06Need to check for post-op complications, stitches, gallbladder leaking.
06:09Has no one checked on it?
06:10Don't know if you've heard, mate.
06:12Been a little short-staffed.
06:13Got to move quickly.
06:14Just been alerted to a big cold front coming through.
06:16Yeah, no, I think I'm feeling it already.
06:18You want Italian or Thai tonight?
06:29How much longer are we going to keep doing this?
06:31Thai then?
06:32You still don't want to be seen with me.
06:34I told you, I just want to keep things professional at work.
06:37They know, Leigh.
06:39What?
06:40They know.
06:41Everyone knows.
06:42No, they don't.
06:43Of course they do.
06:44This is a broken hill.
06:46They knew before we did.
06:48Question is, do you not want to be seen with me at work?
06:51Not seen with me at all?
06:54God damn.
06:56Look, I've got a tasking.
06:58I'll see you later.
07:07Tender under there?
07:19Yeah.
07:20Under the ribs, like a knife.
07:22Here you go.
07:24When did you get back?
07:28First day, actually.
07:30I missed you too much.
07:31Oh, yeah, yeah.
07:33So you had gastric bypass surgery about a month or so.
07:36Yeah.
07:37Did you call your specialist?
07:39Oh, yeah.
07:40I've only said it was normal post-op stuff.
07:43Just a telehealth appointment.
07:45Just open your mouth for me, Andy.
07:47Okay.
07:48BP's 140 on 90.
07:50Respirates are increasing and she's tacky.
07:52Yeah, pulse, Sister Eddie.
07:54Have you been to the bathroom at all today?
07:55Uh-uh.
07:56Think you might be dehydrated?
07:58Huh.
07:59So let's get you up on a stretch and get some fluids in, okay?
08:01Yeah, I can get up.
08:02Just give us a hand.
08:03Hey, hey, don't hurt yourself, okay?
08:05We can help.
08:08Grab the hover jack.
08:09Uh, Scoop, wouldn't be quicker?
08:10Yeah, we've got three good wrists, don't we?
08:12Uh-uh.
08:13Grab the hover jack.
08:15Okay.
08:16What'd you do?
08:17Uh, no, I'm just faking it for sympathy.
08:20Oh.
08:23We're going to slide a mat underneath you that inflates nice and gently.
08:26Andy, okay?
08:27Uh-huh.
08:28So when you vomited, was that after a larger meal at all?
08:31Mm.
08:32Just what they recommended, a few teaspoons.
08:34Okay.
08:39I know the crash is all over the news, so you can call me anytime you need, okay?
08:44But I don't want to hear any more about this crypto crap.
08:47Yeah, right, I will do.
08:48I don't need to hear that.
08:49I'll see you next week.
08:50Bye.
08:51Oh, hey.
08:52Hi.
08:54It's Caleb.
08:55Yes, I remember you.
08:56Yeah.
08:57Oh, I didn't want to assume.
08:58Oh, well, um, a mass casualty incident centre chug the memory.
09:02Yeah.
09:03Anyway, hey, I just, I wanted to give you this as a, like, a little thank you for the pop-up
09:06cafe you did after the funeral.
09:08Oh, well, you didn't need to do that.
09:11Oh, it's okay.
09:12Oh, it's for everything you've done for the town, really.
09:13So.
09:14Whoa.
09:15We need an intervention?
09:16Uh, Tay, you remember Caleb?
09:18He gave us this as a thank you.
09:19Oh, of course.
09:20Yeah.
09:21Hey.
09:22How are you feeling?
09:23Um, pretty sore, actually.
09:25Hmm.
09:26But grateful, you know.
09:31Um, I'm gonna go, okay?
09:33I feel, I feel really exhausted, so I think I'm just gonna...
09:36It's nice to see you again, Caleb.
09:37Yeah, you too.
09:42Hi.
09:43Jaya, do you have those costings for the tender?
09:45Crap.
09:46Sorry.
09:47I just, I got distracted.
09:48I know it's a crazy time, but if this contract isn't as tight as possible and we lose the contract,
09:53none of us will have jobs to get distracted by, okay?
09:56Totally.
09:57Does anyone think that Graham and I are dating?
10:03Um...
10:04Well, no, I don't think...
10:08Yeah.
10:10Kind of...
10:11Well, kind of everyone.
10:13I didn't.
10:17Who are you?
10:18All right, we'll go and roll.
10:21Okay, ready?
10:22Brace.
10:23And roll.
10:25There we go.
10:27You all right there?
10:28Yeah, yeah.
10:29Sorry.
10:30No, no, no, it's not your fault.
10:31It's mine for breaking my damn wrist.
10:33You said it was sprained.
10:36Okay, Andy, I'm just gonna clip you in.
10:38Okay, so, uh, yeah, lunch was no bigger than normal.
10:41Breakfast.
10:42No.
10:43And nothing more than soft foods?
10:45I ate exactly what they told me, okay?
10:47I did liquid and puree, soft food.
10:49I've done exactly what they said.
10:53Okay, we, we believe you.
10:54No, you don't.
10:55Neither does my gastro or the nurses at the clinic.
10:57They all just reckon I've had a burger.
10:59I'm exhausted.
11:03I've done exactly what they said and I'm vomiting foam
11:05and none of you's believed me.
11:09Andy, we're sorry, okay?
11:12We didn't mean to make you feel like that.
11:15And we're gonna find out what it is.
11:16All right?
11:19You said you vomited foam.
11:20Yeah, it's all that comes out.
11:27Okay, let's get you up on the stretcher.
11:43Hi.
11:44Hi.
11:45Kate?
11:46Yeah.
11:47How is he?
11:48I've been confused since he came off the horse.
11:51You're Dr Herod, aren't you?
11:52Yeah, Eliza.
11:54Bye.
12:03Guys, there's some bad weather heading our way.
12:05If you want to stay and play, then we stay in the night.
12:08Uh, heading to you now.
12:09CN5.
12:10Sorry, Andy, I know this is uncomfortable.
12:12Uh, these T waves and voltages seem off.
12:13Potassium might be low.
12:15Yeah, calcium's through the floor, too.
12:17Uh, wait.
12:21What is it?
12:22I think you've got some kind of gastric outlet obstruction,
12:25which is causing what's called metabolic alkalosis,
12:27which is a lack of acid in your system.
12:30Is it from the surgery?
12:31Probably.
12:32Might have healed over too much.
12:33So, we do need to get you on the plane into hospital for a proper look, okay?
12:38But hey, it's all right, mate.
12:40They can fix it.
12:41That's not that.
12:42Just, I don't know.
12:43Just relieved.
12:44Thought I was going crazy.
12:45Ah, not crazy at all.
12:47The plane better bloody fit me.
12:49Mate, it fits Pete's head.
12:50Look at that thing.
12:51Yeah, and Wayne's ego.
12:52It'll fit you.
12:53I know I'm obese.
12:54You don't need to pretend anything else.
12:56No, no, no.
12:57You're suffering obesity.
12:58I know as well as anyone how hard you've tried, Andy.
13:00For the last year, you haven't.
13:02Yeah, sorry I wasn't here.
13:03Yeah, well why'd you piss off?
13:05Oh, million dollar question there.
13:06Boys, must move.
13:08That front's approaching by the second.
13:10Copy on our way.
13:13Front's here in 25.
13:14Have to be wheels up in 20.
13:16Secure, Andy.
13:17I'll sit with the surgeon's in.
13:18Oh, wait, my make-up.
13:20I forgot to finish it.
13:21Do you need it, Andy?
13:22No, but this ain't not looking presentable.
13:26I just want to look like I care about myself.
13:29It's dumb, don't worry about it.
13:31You need surgery as soon as possible, okay?
13:33We need to move, okay?
13:35Hey, Gray, you said wheels up in 20.
13:37Yeah?
13:38More like 15.
13:39Yeah, why, mate?
13:40Because Amber's still here.
13:41Her house is five minutes away.
13:42I'll be right back.
13:43Pete, Pete, Pete.
13:44Bloody hell.
13:51It's like shaking in his left hand.
13:56Some nystagmus.
13:59What does that mean?
14:01It's a slight flicking of the eyes.
14:04How's his general health, Kate?
14:06Yeah, good.
14:07He's active.
14:08He eats well.
14:09Any drugs?
14:10Alcohol?
14:11Is he a smoker?
14:12Uh, no.
14:13He's even lost 20 kilos since he stopped drinking.
14:15And when was that?
14:16A couple years ago.
14:18Pulse 48.
14:19His extremities are cool.
14:20He might be in shock.
14:21All right, well, let's cycle BP again, check it's not a Cushing response, and let's grab an ECG.
14:26I'll check lights and sugar.
14:28Jenny.
14:30I don't need a hospital.
14:32Hello.
14:33Dad?
14:34Jenny's my mum's name.
14:36Is this from the head injury?
14:37Uh, it could be.
14:40I'm just gonna check your heart and lungs.
14:43Did you actually see him fall off the horse, Kate?
14:55You think I'm lying?
14:56No.
14:57No, I-
14:58I found him on the ground next to it, it just seemed pretty clear to me.
15:00Uh, Kate, would you mind grabbing your dad some, some watery?
15:03It's getting warm out here.
15:04Did you forget her birthday or something?
15:16Whatever I did, she didn't like it.
15:18She's about to like me a whole lot less.
15:21You don't think it's a head injury, do you?
15:23Shakes, confusion, nystagmus.
15:26Sounds like vernicus encephalopathy to me.
15:28Thiamine deficiency.
15:30And with veins like those, I'd say due to quite severe alcoholism.
15:35So, not sober then.
15:42He's got two minutes before I personally go.
15:44I didn't kick you bloody-
15:45Ah ha!
15:46And with a minute to spare.
15:49Here we go.
15:51That's alright.
15:52Rightio, must leave now.
16:00Alright Andy, here we go.
16:02Finally.
16:14Sorry, are we going to hospital now?
16:15Ah, no, I don't want to go in.
16:18Dad, you're confused.
16:20You've hit your head, you have to go.
16:22Actually, I think what your father is suffering from is a thiamine deficiency.
16:27So we've given him a shot now.
16:29And then all he has to do is go into town for a second dose and some follow-up tests.
16:33So you're going to leave him here too?
16:36What?
16:37We know Anna's family.
16:40We know what happened on that bus crash, alright?
16:44Oh, oh, oh!
16:46Dad!
16:47Oh!
16:48Dad!
16:49Ryan!
16:50Oh!
16:51Mattie!
16:53It's alright.
16:54It's alright.
16:56Send a fly dock 289, leaving flight level 200 on descent to Broken Hill.
17:07Told ya.
17:09Plenty of time.
17:10Yeah, I'll call Leonie, shall I, and have a ticker tape parade waiting for you.
17:14Alright.
17:15Can you just say whatever it is you need to say?
17:18I said Pete.
17:19As in Pete, don't go be a hero and get us stranded for some lipstick.
17:23Yeah, but it's not just lipstick, is it?
17:26It's her peace of mind.
17:27It's to remind us and the surgeon and, you know, whoever else might be making judgements
17:32about it when she's sedated, that she cares about herself.
17:35And so we should too.
17:36Mate, you're gonna lecture me on unconscious bias now, are you?
17:40Oh, jeez.
17:41This whole pissy routine is very, very tedious.
17:44Yes, pissy.
17:45Yeah, first you're sulking because they didn't come back, now you're angry because they did.
17:48One year later with a gammy wrist and zero explanation.
17:51What do you want to know, mate?
17:52How about why you buggered off to Adelaide when you knew we were all under the pump?
17:56Mate, you knew we were drowning out here.
17:57You're still pissed off anyway without so much as a catch-a-later.
18:00Oi, can you two stop bickering like-
18:02No, no, we're good, Andy, just a bit of turbulence.
18:12Graeme, we're banking.
18:16Graeme.
18:22Graeme, Graeme.
18:23Andy, just give this one for me, okay?
18:24Please, Pete, what's happening?
18:25No, he's fine, he's fine.
18:26You're alright, mate?
18:27Do you know where you are?
18:28Graeme, do you know what year it is?
18:32Come on, go.
18:33Ah, he'll go.
18:34Oh, shit.
18:42Mate, when was your last incapacitated pilot training?
18:44Ah, medical transport course.
18:46About a couple of months ago.
18:48How many is a couple?
18:49Six, maybe.
18:51Oh, Christ.
18:52Okay.
18:53Autopilot is on.
19:01Pulse and breathing is steady, but nah, he's definitely concussed.
19:11See you again tomorrow.
19:13You'll get there.
19:14Just takes time.
19:15Yep.
19:16Hey, Lee.
19:17You know we're all waiting to just be really, really happy for you and Graeme, right?
19:29How is it for you?
19:30You know, the whole work relationship thing?
19:33Look, it can be tricky at times, but I guess that's how you know it's really worth it.
19:40Ah, VJC, this is Mike, Quebec.
19:44What do we need?
19:45Kilo.
19:46Do you read?
19:47Kilo VJC.
19:48Is that you, Pete?
19:49Yeah, yeah.
19:50Slight problem here.
19:52What?
19:53Where's Graeme?
19:54Ah, well, that would be the problem.
19:55He's been concussed in turbulence.
19:58Is he okay?
19:59Um, yeah, no.
20:00He's too out of it to fly.
20:02Ah, autopilot switched on.
20:04I'm at the OK.
20:05I'd love to get a bit of help, please.
20:06You're the designated MTS pilot?
20:08Yeah, before Matt leave.
20:09Well, the only other one's Graeme.
20:12Shit, okay.
20:13Um, Pete, are you there?
20:14It's Mira.
20:15Um, autopilot's definitely on, yeah?
20:18Ah, yes.
20:19Okay, good.
20:20I'm gonna jump into the sim and I'll call you straight back, alright?
20:22How hard is a King Air to talk someone down in compared to other planes?
20:29Ah, yeah, no worse than anything else.
20:34Well, what's wrong with the pilot?
20:35Why is Pete up there?
20:36He's just checking him, okay, Andy?
20:37Well, what does he need to check on?
20:38Look, it's nothing we haven't practiced for a thousand times, okay?
20:41Here we go.
20:42Ah.
20:44Hey, Pete, you there?
20:45Yep.
20:46Okay, so the first thing we need is the fuel quantity.
20:48Can you read the round dials on Graeme's side, please?
20:50Ah, yes.
20:53Ah, there's 300.
20:54300 in both tanks.
20:57Okay, great.
20:58Um, we've got plenty of time.
20:59We'll get you down well before that, okay?
21:01So just, um, try and stay calm.
21:04Yeah, right.
21:06How long does 300 pounds give us?
21:08About an hour.
21:13Hey, we just sat up for the radio.
21:14What can we do?
21:15Fire and Rescue and Ambos are on their way.
21:17Can you...?
21:18Yeah, I'll get them set up.
21:20Stay there.
21:24BP's still alone.
21:25Bloods don't seem to be helping.
21:26Oh!
21:27Let's sit him up!
21:28Let's, let's turn him!
21:29You guys have to help him!
21:31God, do something!
21:34BP's dropping.
21:35We need to control the source of the hemorrhage.
21:37Get the Blakemore tube while I remove the nasogastric.
21:39What are you doing now?
21:40Why are you taking that out?
21:41Your father is bleeding from his gut.
21:42So, we're going to insert that balloon down his oesophagus and inflate it to help stop the blood flow.
21:54Let's sit him up to 45.
21:58Let's sit him up to 45.
21:59Oh!
22:00Oh!
22:01Oh!
22:02Oh!
22:03Oh!
22:04Oh!
22:05Oh!
22:06Oh!
22:11Okay.
22:12Can you swallow for me, Brian?
22:13No.
22:14Just swallow.
22:15Just swallow.
22:21It's all right.
22:22You're doing well.
22:23That's it.
22:24Okay.
22:25Okay.
22:26Okay.
22:27Okay.
22:35Okay.
22:38Inflate to 50 mil.
22:39I'll confirm.
22:43I can see the balloon in the stomach.
22:53That's inflated 50 mil increments to 250 mil.
22:57Don't understand how you missed all of this.
23:01All of this occurred to severe alcoholism over a period of at least six months, Kate.
23:07So, I'm not the one who missed anything.
23:10I'm trying to save your father's life.
23:13Please.
23:14Let me.
23:18The balloon's up.
23:20We still need an airway.
23:21Let's intubate him before the flight.
23:22Keep moving, please.
23:27Okay.
23:28And on that screen, there's a compass, like a little blue marker.
23:30Do you see it?
23:31Yep.
23:32Yep.
23:33Okay.
23:34Okay, great.
23:35We're gonna adjust your flight path now.
23:36Between the windscreens.
23:37Can you see a little knob labeled HDG?
23:41Uh...
23:42Yep.
23:43Great.
23:44That's heading.
23:45When we push that button, the blue numbers on the compass will change.
23:47So, I need you to dial it right to 300.
23:48Three zero zero.
23:49Okay.
23:50Three...
23:51Zero zero.
23:52Confirmed.
23:53Okay.
23:54Well done.
23:55I'm gonna set a timer.
23:56There's nothing to do for ten minutes.
23:57Okay?
23:58Um, I just need to, uh, chat to air traffic control.
24:02Can you flag your position by pressing the button at your right thumb on the yoke?
24:07Uh...
24:08Yep.
24:09Done.
24:10Great.
24:11Now ATC will know where you are.
24:12Okay.
24:13I'll be back with you soon.
24:16Uh...
24:17What's that?
24:18Uh...
24:19Miss.
24:20Miss.
24:21Senta, can you identify the exact position of my Quebec kilo?
24:23Uh...
24:24Uh...
24:25Mira?
24:26What's happening?
24:27Uh...
24:28We're not picking them up manually?
24:30I asked them to squawk ident.
24:32Uh, they should be, um, approximately 95 miles on the 210 radial broken hill.
24:38VJC, this is Kilo.
24:39Uh, we need Mira back.
24:40We're alarming and banking here.
24:42Mira?
24:43Pete's on radio.
24:44Oh, okay.
24:45Hey, Pete, what's happening?
24:47Uh, there's alarms and we've started banking.
24:50But, but...
24:51Heading, heading was just north, right?
24:53Yes.
24:54What have I done?
24:56Uh...
24:57Pete, press autopilot again.
24:58Yeah, I've already done that.
24:59No, no, no.
25:00Press it again.
25:01Sorry, sorry.
25:02Uh, you're sitting in the right-hand seat.
25:03I'm picturing the left.
25:04Um, the button that I told you to press is actually on the opposite side.
25:18You've pressed the autopilot disconnect.
25:20I actually, I need you to press the ATC identification button, which is at your left thumb.
25:25Are you sure?
25:27Uh, I'm 100% sure.
25:28The left side.
25:29Okay.
25:30Okay.
25:31Okay.
25:32Okay.
25:33Great.
25:34Um, now they know where you are and you're heading to us.
25:37Okay.
25:38I'm, I'm so sorry.
25:39Are you okay?
25:41Uh, I think so.
25:44Yep.
25:45And Wayne?
25:46How are you?
25:47Yeah, yeah.
25:48We're just hanging in there.
25:50Okay.
25:51Um, alright, I'm gonna set a timer.
25:53Um, just, just hang, hang tight for 10.
25:56No, no, no.
25:57No, you're not leaving me again.
25:58No, no, no.
25:59I'm not.
26:00I'm not.
26:01We'll be here.
26:02We're here.
26:03Yep.
26:04We'll be on the radio.
26:05Okay.
26:06I'm just gonna go to the bathroom.
26:07Okay.
26:08I've got the timer.
26:23Mom made me promise to take care of him.
26:28Before she died, she, she told me to make sure he didn't relapse.
26:36I had no idea.
26:40Or, or, maybe I did.
26:43And I just, I didn't want to admit it.
26:48Oh, God.
26:50He could have died if he was still out there.
26:53Couldn't he?
26:55Hey, he's going to feel a lot better in hospital.
27:20Hey.
27:21Are you okay?
27:22Uh, yeah, yeah.
27:23Um, don't worry.
27:24I've, I've set a timer.
27:25So, it's all good.
27:26Hey, I know that Wayne is on board and I cannot, I cannot imagine how hard this is,
27:42You, you have got this.
27:46Okay?
27:51Can you slap me?
27:52What?
27:53I just, I just need you to slap me.
27:56No, I'm not gonna slap you.
27:57No, try it, please.
27:58I need you to slap me.
27:59I need you to slap me.
28:00I need you to slap me.
28:01Just slap me.
28:24Mate, I'm, um, I should have told you.
28:28You're right.
28:29I'm sorry.
28:30Mate?
28:31Uh, why I stayed in Adelaide after the retraining.
28:35Mate, you really want to do this now?
28:37Well, we might be hard pressed finding future opportunities.
28:40No.
28:43Just land this plane.
28:44We'll call it even, okay?
28:51You right?
28:52Yep, fine.
28:53What's happening?
28:54Graham was concussed.
28:55Mira's talking them down.
28:57So, who's flying the plane?
28:59Pete.
29:00Oh, my God.
29:02It's all right.
29:03He's got this.
29:04Yeah.
29:05I mean, Pete's done all the training.
29:07Right?
29:11Did you get your wings back, Mira?
29:12Uh, nope.
29:13Do you want me to take over?
29:15King Airs are the most complicated to land.
29:16I mean, even jets are simpler.
29:18I thought you...
29:19It's fine, Blake.
29:20It's okay.
29:21You sure you don't need me to...
29:22Actually, what I need is for you to stop mansplaining my aircraft to me
29:24and start being useful, okay?
29:25Now, what was your wind speed when you landed, please?
29:29Uh, eighteen.
29:30One eight knots.
29:32Eighteen.
29:33Is that too much?
29:34It is for, you know, someone who's never landed a plane.
29:36I approach runway one four from back over town.
29:38Much smoother.
29:39Can they do that?
29:40It's riskier and it takes longer.
29:43How much tailwind have we got if we take runway two three?
29:45Seven to eight knots.
29:46Seven to eight knots.
29:48Wait, what are the options?
29:49Uh, a quicker, simpler landing where crosswinds are a problem
29:53or a more complicated landing where they're not.
29:56So what do we do?
30:01Position emergency services midway at the airport.
30:03We'll take runway two three head on.
30:06What about the wind?
30:07I don't know.
30:08Pray that mother nature holds her breath.
30:14Okay, Pete.
30:15Are you there?
30:16Unfortunately, yes.
30:17Yep.
30:18Okay.
30:19So ATC have cleared the airspace, which means we're going to get ready for landing.
30:22Okay?
30:23Oh, bloody hell.
30:24Hey, listen to me.
30:25You've trained for this, okay?
30:27We're just going to do everything you've practiced.
30:33Now the first thing I need you to do is disengage the autopilot.
30:36Okay, at least I know where that is.
30:37Yep.
30:40Okay, great.
30:41You're now controlling the plane.
30:43Now on the flight management computer, down to your left.
30:47I need you to press the approach departure button.
30:49It's been programmed to guide you to the runway and bring you in.
30:52Yep.
30:53Automatically?
30:55Not quite.
30:56You still have to keep the snowflake in the middle of the target.
31:00Just like a video game.
31:02Honey, video games don't kill you if you lose.
31:06How rough are we talking here?
31:10Look, I'm going to be honest.
31:12It's not going to be smooth.
31:16Um, Miz.
31:19If this doesn't pan out...
31:21No, it's going to pan, okay?
31:22It's panning.
31:23Yeah, yeah, yeah.
31:24But if it doesn't, can you just make sure with Taylor that she knows...
31:27No, shut up.
31:28Shut up.
31:29Shut up.
31:30We're not getting hysterical.
31:31We're landing a plane.
31:32No, just shut up and focus.
31:33Yeah, I'll do that.
31:34Yeah, I'll do that.
31:43Broken Hill 3-4 to base.
31:44Moving emergency vehicles into position now.
31:47Is that really Pete up there?
31:48Yeah.
31:49Currently.
31:50Geez.
31:51Quite the crap magnet, isn't he?
31:55Okay, now, um, the propeller levers are in the middle console.
32:00Okay, I need you to push them full forward to fine.
32:03Okay, uh, prop levers.
32:06Full forward, yep.
32:07Yep, okay.
32:08And the big levers on the left, the biggest ones, the power levers, I want you to bring them back to 600.
32:14600.
32:15600.
32:18Okay, 600, yep.
32:20Great, and on screen one, what's your airspeed?
32:23What's my what?
32:24Your airspeed.
32:25Uh, 195.
32:27Okay, great, great.
32:28We're gonna activate the flap lever now.
32:30Okay, so middle console again, under where it says fuel cutoff levers.
32:34I want you to move them down one step.
32:38Okay, and then tell me when you see 180 on the airspeed indicator.
32:43Yep, that's 180.
32:44Okay, great.
32:45Now we're gonna put the landing gear down, okay?
32:49Bloody hell, miss.
32:50Okay, the one near Graeme's right knee, the white tyre looking thing, I want you to pull that towards you and down.
32:57It should go red.
33:01And when the wheels are in position, the button will turn green.
33:08Yep, yep, light's green.
33:12Okay, great.
33:13Look, the wheels are in position and you're ready to land.
33:15Hey, you're a natural one.
33:16Don't, don't even.
33:17Don't, mate, don't.
33:21Pete, Pete, what is it?
33:22I said that would be those crosswinds, I think.
33:23Just, just keep it steady.
33:28It's just getting pretty dicey up here.
33:29We're bouncing around a lot.
33:30Yep, just, just keep the snowflake in the centre.
33:32Yeah.
33:33I just, I just can't keep it in the middle, eh?
33:36Relax your grip, all right?
33:37Just try not to over control and remember the training.
33:40Gee, miss, I think we need to pull up.
33:42Hey, no, no, no.
33:43Pete, stay with it.
33:44You have to do this now.
33:45Yeah, righto.
33:47When you hit 20 feet, lift the power lever handle up and pull back to stop.
33:52Whoa, whoa, whoa, what?
33:53Lift the what?
33:54The power lever handle.
33:55Up and back.
33:56And then pull the fuel cutoff levers closest to you.
33:59One, fuel cutoff back.
34:00The fuel cutoff levers, you're going to pull them back, right back to stop.
34:0850.
34:1330.
34:1520.
34:16Power lever, Pete.
34:17Yep.
34:18Pull back, yeah.
34:26Pull the fuel cutoff levers.
34:27Yep.
34:28Now pull the yoke towards you.
34:30And push both foot pedals.
34:31Pete?
34:32What happened?
34:33They've landed.
34:34All clear.
34:35Oh, my God.
34:36Oh, my God.
34:37Oh, my God.
34:38Oh, my God.
34:39Yeah.
34:40Oh, my God.
34:41Oh, my God.
34:45Oh, my God.
34:46Oh, my God.
34:47Oh, my God.
34:49Oh, my God.
34:52Oh, my God.
34:53Oh, my God.
34:57Oh, my God.
35:01You are the greatest.
35:07Who needs wings, eh?
35:13We're alive?
35:15I think so, yeah.
35:16I think I pissed myself.
35:19Oh, boy.
35:22Why, first week back?
35:23Yeah, what the hell was that?
35:24Here we go, Greg.
35:25Chair behind you.
35:27Let's see, Jack.
35:27William, are you all right?
35:29Yeah, don't worry.
35:29He's, um...
35:31Well, we're fine.
35:34Can't get rid of me that easily.
35:36I don't want to.
35:43Looks like I missed out on quite a bit.
35:46Are you all right?
35:49Yeah.
35:51Where's Taylor?
35:52She didn't...
35:53No, no, don't worry.
35:54She went home to rest.
35:57She missed all of it.
36:01Coming for my job, hey?
36:02You are not paying for a drink ever again.
36:05Good, because I need about a thousand after...
36:07Oh, thank you.
36:08Well done, buddy.
36:11Can I get one of those?
36:12Oh, my God.
36:24Oh, my God.
36:25Oh, my God.
36:30Hey, here's to Top Gun.
36:45I can't want that prickle dirt.
36:46Oh, Goose at best.
36:48I was talking about Miss Maid.
36:49She did all the hard work.
36:50You were just a puppet.
36:51Yeah, I don't know if any pilots have a crashed a plane
36:53before they get their wings back.
36:54Or landed one.
36:55Yeah.
36:56Hey, how's Andrea?
36:58Anastomosis stretches.
36:59She's in surgery now.
37:01What a trooper.
37:02They'll let us know when she's out.
37:03She said to say goodbye.
37:05Hey.
37:06Hey.
37:06How are you?
37:07There he is, man of the hour.
37:09I'm putting on a tab for all of you.
37:10What?
37:11Dreamboat.
37:12It's the least I can do.
37:13For saving us all, a lot of trauma,
37:15but more importantly, a lot of paperwork.
37:17Legend.
37:17Oh, second there, I'm going to give them a hand.
37:19Maddie, you let me guess Pinot Gris and Chaya Whiskey Nick?
37:22She's been sober five years,
37:24and what's Pinot Gris supposed to be?
37:27No way.
37:27Rosé?
37:32What?
37:35More water?
37:36No thanks.
37:37I'm good.
37:39Of course I want to be with you.
37:41You almost becoming an episode of Air Crash Investigations
37:46really brought that into focus.
37:50I was just worried that if we made this public at work,
37:54it could complicate things.
37:56It won't matter for a while anyway.
38:01Concussion means mandatory time off,
38:03then restricted flying.
38:04It could take months to get my full Class A back.
38:05Well, then let's get out of here.
38:10Okay.
38:11I haven't been on a trip in years.
38:13We've both got long service leave.
38:16What about your contract tender?
38:18It's always a contract tender.
38:19Pete's back.
38:20He and Maddie can handle it.
38:21What do you reckon?
38:25I reckon yes.
38:29What is it?
38:36I'm so sorry about that bottle of wine.
38:51Oh, please.
38:51Do you know how many bottles of thank you port
38:53I've been able to re-gift?
38:55It's like I never have to buy presents.
38:57Yeah, I mean, still though,
38:58being sober's got to be fun in a town
39:01where every catch-up involves at least several beers.
39:04Um, yeah.
39:05Well, there are other ways to stay social.
39:08Thanks.
39:09Is that right?
39:11Oh.
39:12I mean, you know, if you're creative.
39:16Well, you know, I've always been told
39:18I've got a bit of an artistic bent,
39:20so the question is, what are you into?
39:22Macramay, watercolours?
39:24Yes.
39:26Okay.
39:26Well, if we were to, um, paint together,
39:29it would have to be purely casual.
39:33So you mean no strings-attached painting?
39:37Well, just because colleagues, you know,
39:39it doesn't really mix well, at least not for me.
39:43Wait, are we not talking about an art project?
39:46No, we are.
39:47Art project.
39:48Oh.
39:49Hey.
39:50Hey.
39:51How are you feeling?
39:53Uh, well, like, I know what my nightmares are going to be like
39:56for the rest of my life.
39:59I was worried about you there.
40:01I was worried about me there.
40:02For a second.
40:03It's just...
40:05What?
40:06What?
40:07This is so dumb.
40:09You know, all I could think about when I was up there
40:11was that movie airplane.
40:12Oh, my God.
40:13I love that film.
40:14Yeah, when the pilot passes out
40:16and they get all made up from the back to...
40:17Yeah.
40:17Can you fly this plane and land it?
40:19Shirley, you can't be serious.
40:21Hey, I'm serious.
40:22And don't call me Shirley.
40:24Glad to see you laughing, mate.
40:25Hey, yeah.
40:27Yeah.
40:28Did you ever...
40:29Did you ever see an airplane?
40:31The Leslie Nielsen film?
40:32Yeah.
40:33No.
40:34No.
40:35It's just stupid.
40:36It's, um...
40:38Idiots landing planes.
40:39All right.
40:41Okay.
40:42Adrenaline has worn down to pure exhaustion.
40:44I'm going to get her home.
40:45You stay.
40:46No, no, no.
40:46I'm coming.
40:47I'm not letting you two.
40:48Out of my sight.
40:49Are you off?
40:50Yeah.
40:50Oh, thanks.
40:51You're in a bit.
40:53Good work.
40:54Bye, guys.
40:54See you at work, mate.
40:55Yeah.
40:56See you at work, mate.
40:56See you.
40:57See you.
40:57See you.
40:58Hey, I'm coming with you.
41:01You know, it wasn't just the work stuff.
41:03Me being pissy.
41:05Oh, yeah?
41:05Kathy, she's the best.
41:06You know, losing Timmy.
41:10After he died, you said you'd be there and you weren't, mate.
41:14I had never thought of it like that.
41:19Which doesn't make me any less selfish.
41:21I know, but, um...
41:23I mean, I'm sorry.
41:24No, no, no.
41:25I mean, I think I get it now.
41:30You might want to think about saying something soon.
41:32I think they're getting pretty serious.
41:33See you at work.
41:39Yep, see it.
41:48I am out of hours.
41:51Don't even think about it.
41:53Uh, so, just got word back from pathology on Owen Tidwell.
41:56The bus driver.
41:58It's confidential till the trial,
41:59but his tox screens have come back positive for amphetamines.
42:04Let's go.
