Sad that we have lost Max, but happy we had him! What a leader in our industry!
I passed by him a few times in the Wardair hangar at YYZ while I worked for Worldways, and we used the hangar, but I was never important enough to have something to chat about with him. Then, years ago, Joan Moore asked me to say a eulogy for her husband Roy, the former owner of Worldways. I was one of two people asked to perform this honour. To my surprise and delight, when I was finished, Max stood up from being seated on the audience, and asked to speak a few words. I could not welcome him quickly enough! We had a nice chat after that. My brief passing with Canadian aviation history in person!
I appreciated Max!
