Yak down...

I was at Turweston today - saw the aircraft land, refuel and follow us down to the hold for departure.

The pilot - pax unknown to us - was a popular visitor, highly experienced (ex-mil) and has left us all numbed with shock.

Tragedies such as this affect so many people. I have been there myself.......

Spare a thought for the wives, kids and all the friends and relatives who will be grieving tonight and for a long long time to come...

Fly safe guys.....

Such a sad event on a beautiful flying day.
