Very sad news. Despite everything, Ritchie was always cheerful, even attending a Dining In night in No5s and beanie hat while undergoing his treatment.
Unless it has been repainted in the last couple of months Richie's name is still under the rear cockpit of ZA392/006 at Lossie, (having previously been 'E' on II(AC)), applied shortly after he arrived on Two Sqn, although he wasn't able to fly with us by then.
