Given that all they have on board is basically an automated defibrillator (if that) and some sedatives they may well have a point.

The onboard physicians kits contain a comprehensive array of emergency equipment and drugs (in addition the the AEDs that are on board as you correctly point out), the content far exceeds the guidance set by IATA. There contents and usage are constantly reviewed and monitored.

Struggling to use your Frequent Flyer Points?

Frequent Flyer Concierge takes the hard work out of finding award availability and redeeming your frequent flyer or credit card points for flights.

Using their expert knowledge and specialised tools, the Frequent Flyer Concierge team at Frequent Flyer Concierge will help you book a great trip that maximises the value for your points.

Because we go to Off the Beaten Track places we get some very comprehensive annual first aid training - it's normally two weeks annually and is very intense. I don't pretend to be a doctor but have helped out once on a flight when no one responded to the first call for a doctor on board. Hopefully if it does ever happen again then there will be a doctor on board though - my hats off to all of the (medical) doctors on here that come forward when needed in these situations.
