Max was one pilot we all admired, looked up to and learnt so much from. Sadly, gone but never to be forgotten.
Max checked me out in the Territory Airlines C185, later the C336 (push me, pull me - half an engine up front and a half behind !) and the delightful Beech 55 Baron between 1965 and 1967.
Hid drinking and Party exploits were stuff of legends but Max always fronted up for work early the next day - rain, hail or shine and got the job done.
A brilliant Aviator in every respect that we all respected enormously.
Who could ever forget his cheeky smile and those 'fashion statement' hand made leather ankle boots that we also admired enormously !
RIP and Vale our true friend, colleague and superb Aviator.
