Unhappy RIP Jim Hilton

Today I was told that Jim Hilton the Chief flying instructor and owner of the old IMC flying school has passed away , he died on Saturday after a heart attack , Jim had stopped flying himself due to bad health some time ago and that was a loss to us then , his wonderful ways of teaching the imc rating will be remembered by all who had the chance to spend time at his home field barn at Turweston , his holding patterns ndb tracking and other instrument procedures around the salt and pepper tomato sauce bottle and of course the bottle of wine on the dinner table were a site to behold , my thoughts go to his family at this time , I feel lucky to have known the man .

RIP Jim
