John G-W was truly a scholar and a gentleman in every respect.
He was a fellow QHI and my 'Boss' for a period at Shawbury. After retiring from the RAF he worked on his genealogy and cartography business, and flew as a RAFVR officer with the AEF, then went back to R/W as a contractor's QHI when DHFS was set up. He officially 'retired' from FBHeliservices towards the end of last year, then returned on a new contract.
RIP; my thoughts are with his family, and with the injured and their families also.
