W-8
I have met Bill Bell and was involved with him when he was ferrying from USA.
I was also involved with SAR when he disappeared and listened to the ATC recording of his Mayday message.
The Mayday call was made because of "engine failure" yet there was the loud roar of C172 engine at 2400 RPM in the background.
Bill had some deep personal problems which any of us might find hard to come to terms with. RIP Bill.
