Thanks RW for the post. So sad to hear about Billy going. I had the pleasure of flying with him several times. a gentleman and a great mentor.
I recall a trip to Trefoil Island where he was a passenger. I didn't really know him. A gale was blowing and it was misting with rain. I so wanted to make a good landing but blew the approach and finally decided to go around. Billy just looked at me and said "mate, another couple of seconds and I would have done that for you".
