FIGAS Winter Flights: Camp residents are pushing back after FIGAS cut winter flying to four days a week (Mon, Tue, Fri, Sun) with no-fly days Wed/Thu/Sat, warning it will leave them feeling even more isolated as the Concordia Bay ferry is due to be laid up for maintenance at the end of July. FIGAS says the change is meant to protect aircraft availability by concentrating flying so engineers get uninterrupted time for 1,000-hour maintenance and corrosion work. Hantavirus Response: The wider crisis linked to the MV Hondius outbreak is still driving emergency action—Ukraine is evacuating a crew member, and RAF teams have been parachuting medical support to remote Tristan da Cunha after a suspected case. Mental Health: A Big 4 Walk in Stanley raised funds for Island Minds Foundation, with the Falklands contributing £490.20. Food Supply Rumours: Local reporting says fears of food shortages were overstated, with shops and homes operating normally despite past supply-ship delays.
