Farewell Sir Dennis.
Your passing leaves me with sadness but at the same time, I reminisce the good times that I enjoyed working for you in 1966 thru to 1970. I can laugh about when you sacked Dick Broomhead, Peter Arnold and myself four times one night at the old Hagen Hotel, got cranky , stormed out of the pub and fell down a bloody great barat! I can laugh about when you gave me a payrise the night Arnold got married and many other times when cameraderie was the go. Talair was a great company and I enjoyed working for you and having the odd beer or two whenever we met in the years since.
Farewell Sir Dennis, I salute you and rest peacefully knowing fullwell that you join the greats of aviation who also have gone to the great hangar in the sky.
To Della and your family, my sincerest condolences during your time of grief.

Peter Sharpe.
