Colin "Huggiss" Hughes AFC

I'm sad to report that "Huggiss" has passed away today aged 78 at home on his beloved Island of Anglesey with his wife Isabel at his side.

He was a great cold war sub-hunter who was the Captain of the winning Fincastle Trophy crew in 1973.

Huggis later flew for Dan Air and subsequently British Airways as a Training Captain.

He was a legend and a character wherever he went and will, I'm sure, be sadly missed by all who knew him as well as remembered for his politically incorrect use of the English language!!

RIP Huggis.
