Ken was involved with my CPL Training and subsequent Instructor Rating in 1980 at AFTS - Barney Fernandes is another story for another day.
I am certain I still have tape recordings of Ken "pattering" a number of ab-initio flight sequences in the air.
Two trainee Instructors and Ken would fly out to the Bankstown Training area for a shared sequence and swap over at Hoxton Park.
We would take the tapes home and try to emulate them the next day.
Lovely gentleman and I still recall the very 'proper' and perfect flow of his patter. Hopefully just a little rubbed off on me.
We all have characters who make a mark on our career. Ken was one of mine.
