Max Kenworthy
I have been out of Police Aviation (retired) for five years and still miss it. Today, by chance, I came across a note I had from Max several years ago, and thought I would Google him, that is how I ended up here; sadly a few weeks too late.
Max was incredibly helpful to me when I was UEO at Manchester. We always got on very well when he was H.O advisor and without him GMP would not have had the Air Support Unit, with fixed wing and rotary aircraft that it has today.
As a result of the support and guidance that Max provided in securing govt finance, without which aircraft would not have been acquired, it is not exaggerating the fact to say that many people have benefitted greatly from the work that Max did, and many owe their lives to him.
Overall though he was a great guy and so entertaining to be with. He deserved more time on this earth and I am proud and thankful that I knew him.
