On adrenaline. This is presumably in there for anaphylactic shock - in which case it will make a huge difference right?

Good point, I guess I was focussed on the use of adrenaline in cardiac arrest. Yes, it would certainly make a difference in that condition!
Funny, I even have a family member who carries an epipen, I had to give her a dose of adrenaline on a plane once when the chicken curry turned out (unexpectedly) to have nuts in it: we ended up using her own supply, but you're right, it should definitely be stocked!
