I think there is enough information out there to prove the extent of criminal behaviour carried out by Barry Hempel, Hempel Aviation, CFI, CP, CEO, pilots, CASA, Police, wives, friends and associated friends. I mention all of these as anyone that knew Barry was still flying the YAK with no CPL could have done something to avoid this crash.
Unfortunately, people not associated with this circle of cowboys i.e. the public did not know about the criminal behaviour being carried out by the company. It surprises me the flying school is still operational.
As a result an innocent member of the public Ian Lovell was basically lost his life from this criminal activity. Furthermore hundreds of friends, family, and colleague’s partners have been affected from this for the rest of their lives.
I really hope the Inquest comes out with some strong recommendations to avoid this criminal activity in the industry to protect the public.
