Rick was the kind of guy I generally categorize as "quietly competent."
I knew Captain R A Balfour in Aberdeen but didn't didn't fly together until the 80s when he was on the S-76 and I had just converted. I thought he was a cool Pilot, always reminded me of Cool Hand Luke in those days! As NEO says, you learned by osmosis just being around Rick as he would always give some wise advice. Top bloke.
