Graham taught me to fly at Hoxton Park in the late 70s early 80s. During one lesson Graham told me that he had just got his 1000 hours up. Graham always showed an interest far beyond that of me being a just paying customer. When he an Rene started Liverpool Flying School you always felt welcome to drop in for a chat. Even though I haven't seen him for some time, on hearing the news of his accident, I feel that I have lost a good friend.
