I’m fast losing track of who went where and in what fashion, but this article maintains that some were taken to a general hospital on Molokai:

“...Eight people were found in the water with life vests on about a half mile northwest of Kalaupapa, according to Lee Mainaga of the MFD. The ninth person swam to shore.

Three of the crash victims were taken to Oahu, two declined treatment and are staying in Kalaupapa and three were airlifted by helicopter to topside where they were taken to Molokai General Hospital...

The two taken by helicopter to Honolulu were Puentes and a 74-year-old woman, who were picked up by Honolulu EMS in stable condition at 6:30pm.

The two who refused treatment were Yamamoto and Kawasaki. Makani Kai flew them to the Makani Kai headquarters at the Honolulu airport, from which Yamamoto was driven to his home and either Kawasaki or his son drove him to the hospital where he stayed 2 nights with a concussion.

The 3 who were taken to Molokai General Hospital were apparently Jacob and Rosa Key, who flew back to Oahu the next day, and the 70-year-old guy who waved and smiled at Mark Peer.

Other reports say that Fuddy’s body was taken to Molokai General Hospital (or one report said to Maui...) for an autopsy. And other reports also say that the Coast Guard HC-130 flew one patient directly to Queens Hospital in Honolulu. But the NTSB said that the pilot and 2 passengers were seriously injured, and 5 had minor injuries.

So who was the person who was flown directly to Queens?
