Disclaimer & comment rulesThis story is totally unremarkable. Private Argentine aircraft frequently visit the Falklands, sometimes pilot/owners just making a visit to the islands as tourists, and sometimes (as I believe was the case on Monday) to do medical evacuations. I think Monday’s flight was for an injured fisherman off a commercial fishing vessel.
Jan 12th, 2023 - 01:33 am - Link - Report abuse +3As far as I know, there is no restriction on private flights direct from Argentina to the Falklands, as long as they comply with the formalities and regulations and seek the required permissions for their visits.
Untracked by whom? What a spurious piece of reporting.

Jan 12th, 2023 - 04:03 pm - Link - Report abuse -3Now would be the time to ask oneself why PenguinPress chooses to publish such a foolish story...,that barely made it into the most exterme turnipy nationalist Argie niche internet sites...
If one didn't know better..., one could be tempted to Tænk that PenguinPress was kind of a exterme turnipy nationalist Anglo niche internet site itself....
Capisce...?
The Falklands Government permitted the arrival of an emergency flight from Argentina for the medical evacuation of an Argentine citizen from a cruise ship.

Jan 12th, 2023 - 11:25 pm - Link - Report abuse +1Did this story originate in P News? It wouldn’t surprise me, I gave up on it long ago. Very poor excuse for a newspaper IMHO.
The flight had permission. Anyone who needed to know about it knew about it. Keyboard warriors who think they are air traffic controllers because they know how to use Flight Radar are not on the mailing list.
Not quite right...copper...
