I had the privilege to teach "Steady", work with Gary both on 47 and the OCU for many years and of course the inimitable Gibbo. Unfortunately I never really new Smudge or the Nav but reading these posts I've certainly missed knowing really good guys.
On a lighter note, in honour of one of Gary's finest moments when relaxing, I tried about 4 drops of Tabasco but could not emulate his yam sing of the whole bottle. Good mates who will be missed.
My sincerest feelings of sorrow and condolences to all the families of all the deceased.
