Harry Chang ex Lloyds International Macedonian Aviation

I am seeking what happened to Harry Chang originally with Lloyds International who joined Macedonian Aviation at Southend in 1972 to establish their Dakota and Dove operations. Harry was a truly remarkable Captain who rescued 30 British wedding guests from Beirut airport after the Israelis placed it under attack following the Munich Olympic games massacre in 1972. He flew the Macedonian DC3 G-AMPO from Gatwick via Brindisi to Beirut and with gunfire all around and the guests cowering in beach huts by the airport collected the entire wedding party and escorted by Israeli fighters flew them to Nicosia Cyprus and the wedding concluded at the Dome Hotel Kyrenia.
