Hehehehehe . . . serious subject, I know . . . but . . .

Each of the pilots was disorientated, none understood how _HE_ (or _SHE_) got 
to that position . . .

None denotes “not one” which cries foul when followed by a they, which denotes 
more than one.

Really, Chief Constable . . .  <g>

A more precise construction: The pilots were disoriented; they didn’t 
understand how they got to that position . . .
