Peter came out to Brunei to help teach the RBAirF the basics of NVG. He had all the right qualities - credibility, diplomacy and sense of humour. Top bloke for a navy pilot.... He was also the origin of the story about how the UK stopped calling them Pilot Night Goggles and started using the US term NVG.

Very sad news - Rest in Peace.
