I very rarely post on here but Mark's passing is such a sad day that it feels necessary. Those that know the title to this post will have worked closely with him. Mark was the funniest ATCO I ever worked with and there are many tales to tell. Kipper eating, setting fire to bales of hay with a varey pistol, putting bread on the goats caravan the production of the underground magazine " the gossip" which included the controversial section who is doin who. He was larger than life and a top bloke. I will miss you Mark!!

RIP Niknak. Always enjoyed his contribution to the Forum.
HD. Echoing the thoughts of others. Your comments on retirement to enjoy family life certainly struck a chord. So sorry that you have lost your soul mate.

Long time reader and occasional poster. I wouldn't be where I am today without the help of this forum and its members, my thanks to you all but my deepest sympathy to 'niknak's' family and friends and also to you HD for your loss.

Bugger! Condolences to family and friends... Mark was a friend in the 80's during a sojourn in Umberside, we kept in touch for a while when I came back North but lost touch, I often wondered where he was and he was here all the time

Rest in peace.
Very sorry to see this. I met Mark when I was instructing a long time ago and he helped explain many of the mysteries of Air Traffic Control.He was a good bloke. Irreverent, funny and full of energy is how I remember him.
My sincere condolences to his family and friends. I hope his spirit is in the aviation section of Valhalla with a pint in his hand regaling friends with more funny stories.
