One of the most prominent flying training figures in Canada has passed away at the age of 85. Don McClure, affectionately known as “The Whip”, ran the Moncton Flying Club for 30 years and set the stage for what is now the largest flying training organization in Canada. Don served as a mentor and surrogate father to literally thousands of pilots who are now flying for practically all the world’s major airlines.
In 2002 Don was inducted into the Canada’s Aviation Hall of Fame (http://www.cahf.ca/Members%20and%20Belt%20of%20Orion/members/M_members.htm).
