Mods - could I beg your indulgence to leave this here for a few days so that the news can get out to those who may be far afield ?
For those who were involved in the early days, a then (non-flying) senior management figure has left us. I haven't seen any public identification so I'll leave it for those from those times to deduce the identity at this stage.
We've lost a full on Industry character and a half and a lot of fond memories of another time. One of a kind.
