Alan Dumesney (Jetcraft)

For those that are unaware Alan Dumesney, formely a Captain with Jetcraft Aviation is gravely ill after a recent motor bike accident. His family has asked me to let all of Alan's friends know that they expect his passing later tonight. A service will be organised in the next few weeks and I will post the information when it comes to hand.
Alan, enjoy the peace and thanks for the many great memories!

Ah s**t, Al was one of my good mates back in the 90's at JC.
Farken top bloke, always friendly and did his job quietly in the background.

Al was the fastest pilot on the coalfields run, used to run rings around the rest of us.

I only knew Alan for a few years (since 1978) He was a friendly and likeable guy. There are many in GA that will remember him well.

Very sad news indeed.
A true aviation gentleman with a weather-hardened cheeky smile.
Further details please, PM or otherwise.
Was great having an "early opener" with him, chilled from the nose locker, when crossing paths.
