Johnny Crewdson

Nick & Kate Crewdson have been getting all the mentions on here but most of my dealings have been with Johnny who I believe was John's son from his first marriage.

Met him at HH when he was walking around the workshops sporting a "CRASS" tee-shirt.

Many years later I came across him again during my Bristows days and again at Aeromega.

He was always a friendly understated chap who always did the job well.

I think he spent a lot of time on the deadly "Gas Contract" where I think he flew for Dollar plus other operators. Also believe that he did some time on the North Sea.

Not seen Johnny for a good few years but personnally have been out of helicopters for coming up to 12 years now.

In answer to Savoia's earlier question regarding JC's antics, he was a very quiet man but a damn fine pilot. As HH progressed he became more the businessman than the flier.
