An emotional day

Today, together with Lieutenant R Woolley's family (the other pilot of WL350), we laid a stone at the scene of my fathers accident.

We were honoured that Nick and Coral and Bob and Ann who we contacted via PPRuNe were able to join us as well as Mike and Wynne Vickers who were such good friends to my Mum after his death. we were also privileged that the local farmer who was awarded a gallantry medal for his attempt to save the pilots.

Many thanks to all at PPRune for their messages of support; on this thread, by private message and by email.

Always in awe of what you chaps do
