I have found a link to the Spanish accident investigation into the tragic loss of Mark Hanna in the Buchon

Still sadly missed


Sir George Cayley

Agreed. Knew Mark well at Coningsby back in F4 days - nice chap missed by us all.

The report is a very honest, yet at the same time a most gracious document.

Hear Hear. I fear the day is nearly upon us where no Hanna entertains us Aeronautical afficionadoes... shame.

I too met Mark back in the late 80's, he struck me as being a very decent man. Whilst I had only met him comparatively few times, when I heard of his accident it was one of those events that makes your hair stand on end and a chill run down your spine.

I attended his Memorial Service at St Clement Danes, which was a very moving tribute and was packed to the rafters as well. At the end of the service I took a few pictures as the congregation departed, (I was taking pictures in London on that day anyway). Having sent the pictures via OFMC to the family I got a very nice letter of thanks, I wonder how many other pruners were there celebrating the life of this, in my opinion, very special aviator?
