As a child I'd met Mr Hazelton a few times and remember, when I was about 12, talking with him at BK one evening. The airport seemed deserted, sun was setting and he was waiting for the arrival of what I think was the last new PA31 into Australia.

Some years later I had the honour and pleasure of Jim's instruction as he taught me to fly his C180, VH-CYJ. He was a fine gentleman and I'm richer for both experiences.
