Sad news indeed. To everyone who had the privelege to know the man, and evidently to many who did not, the aviation world has lost a treasured friend. A delight to know, a gentleman with whom to share the flight deck, one of God's REAL gifts to aviation. His charming demeanour gave confidence to anyone who flew with him. In delegating a sector, he would do so by asking the first officer in question, in that wonderful lilt he had, "So, are you going to give us a bit of a demo to-day, then, John, are you?"
He's probably up there now where he belongs, cursing people who write nice things about him!
