Capt Ian Welsh
Regret to report that Capt Ian Welsh, Formerly AAC, North Midlands Helicopter Support Unit & Derbyshire, Rutland & Leicestershire Air Ambulance Pilot, passed away last week.
In 2006, Ian fought quite a battle - firstly with Stage 4 Bowel cancer and later with the CAA to get his single pilot ticket back, managing to overturn a 5 year "as or with a co-pilot" restriction and continuing to fly as an Air Ambulance Pilot until he reached the age of 60.
RIP Mate.

RIP Mate.

Sorry to hear this. Although we never served together we both flew for the same unit. My sincere condolences to Ian’s family.

Ian was my brother, and I would like to contact someone who has more information about his date of death and where he was, since he was not in touch with me or his brother, Alasdair. Thanks Alison

hi I moved mr Welsh into his home and tried contacting him recently by his mobile I know he was really poorly and when his number was turned off I feared he may have passed sadly I was wondering if he had any children or really close family I could contact?
