Gerry was the QHI at Middle Wallop who foolishly sent me on my first helicopter solo! That was way back in January 1979, in a Bell 47G-4A, reg G-AXKW. Before my fisrt flight with him, I was told that he only carried two chinagraph pencils: a brown and a red. If a student warranted a 'green' he would borrow one from another instructor! Talk about cr*pping oneself!!
Last saw Gerry in Unst in March/April 1989, when he was flying the Bristow S61N to the Ninian field.
Anyone know where he is now?
