She obviously wouldn't have known the QF Jet was coming looking for her...that would be quite the surprise I think!!!

Great to know that she has been found! Her well-being has occupied my mind all day!
Incidentally, while contemplating today's events, I wondered if there is a hi-tech, unmanned drone aeroplane that could be stationed permanently on a remote island like St Paul's. It could then be despatched quickly (by remote control) to the GPS position of stricken vessels etc. Maybe it could be first on the scene to establish / relay communications. Just a thought! M.

Matthew O, while the idea in principle is good, to maintain and house it out there would for the very odd bit of use would be very cost prohibitive.
Unfortunately our current Fed Govt is likely to see this type of thing as being a wonderful idea and would station 10 of them out there, just in case the first 9 went U/S when it really counted.
