Jan Rustad RIP
Jan Rustad has left for clearer skies..
Well known mountain flying instructor has passed away.
He taught a lot of people from around the world how to fly helicopters in the mountain environment.
He will be missed. His techniques will live on in his students.

Sad news indeed, which I had heard ealier on FB. I spent a week in Penticton in the summer of 2010, doing the VR course (with Mel) and Jan had a really great team there, full of enthusiasm and very high morale and team spirit.
