Hutch describes a traumatic cardiac arrest he encountered alone, with no warning and no crewmate to share the load. He explains how he recognised cognitive overload and used simple strategies — “lighting a flare”, “norming the abnormal”, and dropping tasks he couldn’t safely achieve — to regain decision-making space. The discussion links this experience to his work on the ATACC course and the emerging SPEAR programme, exploring how realistic, human-centred simulation prepares clinicians to function when the stakes and stress are highest.
