Mr Woodford's own concern about all this is indicated in the lengthy affidavit which he prepared for the purpose of exonerating Captain Gemmell. It was sworn by him on 21st May 1981 not very long after the Report of the Royal Commission had been made public. A final comment should be made about Captain Gemmell's position.
"Poor David!" she said, making much of his hand as if she had hurt it. But David Gemmell's was too simple a face to oppose to her pitying eyes, and presently she let his hand slip from her and stood regarding him curiously. He had to look another way, and then she even smiled, a little forlornly. "Do you mind talking it over with me, Grizel?" he asked.
Gemmell's, on my way home, and ask him to come to you." "There is no necessity; a night's rest is all I need," he answered hastily. "Well, you know best," she said, and there was a look on her face which Thomas Sandys could endure from no woman. "On second thoughts," he said, "I think it would be advisable to have a doctor. Thank you very much, Grizel.
These paragraphs followed a discussion by the Commissioner of a submission by counsel for the Pilots Association that a number of documents which would have tended to support the proposition that Captain Collins had relied upon the incorrect co-ordinates had not been located; and in that context the Commissioner recorded Captain Gemmell's denial that he had recovered any documents relevant to the flight which had not been handed over to the chief inspector.
He had such a firm chin, if there had been another such chin going a-begging, I should have liked to clap it on to Tommy Sandys. Tommy Sandys! All this time we have been neglecting that brave sufferer, and while we talk his ankle is swelling and swelling. Well, Grizel was not so inconsiderate, for she walked very fast and with an exceedingly determined mouth to Dr. Gemmell's lodgings.
He was asked about Captain Gemmell's work at the actual scene of the disaster and his explanation about that matter is reflected in the following question and answer: "Did you see Capt. Gemmell at any time in the cockpit area or thereabouts working on his own.... I qualified that before. Working on your own is a relative term.
So far as your observations are concerned what would you have to say regarding Capt. Gemmell's conduct and behaviour in the course of his duties there.... I have no reason to doubt Capt. Gemmell in any way shape or form. Have you ever suggested otherwise to anybody.... I have not." Then he was cross-examined by counsel for the Association whose witness he had been earlier.
