Yep,
In the early eighties he was my lead when we went through MR2 conversion. I was second dry and third was a very good mate who went on to become a fairly controversial fast jet pilot (won't be giving any names) long since departed for the airlines.
The two of us ran old Roger, and everybody else, ragged and he put up with it with immense good grace. Top bloke, sadly missed.
The memorial is one of the most beautiful and fitting I know.
I agree...as a munroist, I pass by many a sad site, quite often with accompanying large chunks of wreckage. Like the Canberra that hit the summit of one of the Lochnagar Munros. It was flying from Kinloss to Wyton when I was 26 days old...the emotional context is quite heavy when you pass by somewhere like that.
