I never got a chance to meet him, but a friend of mine did a couple of months ago at bournemouth and got his log book signed, typical the one day I wasnt at the airfield!!!
One thing I think is good though is that he was devoted to flying and his wife Gwen and I understand he went flying at the weekend with his wife before being taken ill and passing away, at least he didnt have his passions taken away from him by a long illness. And thank god the wx was kind to him for his last flight.
