Singleton/SW Wales sent one of its cancer specialist teams to Dublin approx 2-3 years ago my sister being one of that team. I can tell you that despite the obvious mental toughness of the team...... Flying in turbulence across miles of ocean in one of those small bucking-bronco planes was not a pleasant pre-journey thought or experience. And the Singleton team travelled in a twin-engine plane.
*Edit* Afterthought.... All planes should IMO have safety systems in place with parachute and emergency all weather inflatable raft, radio beacon, flares etc.

Most planes are too heavy for a parachute. Also practicing deploying and floating on a raft in a swimming pool is far different to the crashing waves and freezing temperatures of the Atlantic Ocean.
I'm amazed anyone would fly across a large stretch of water in a single engine plane.
