Ron (Rocket) Cox
It is with great sadness I have to report that Ron Cox passed away peacefully on September 27, after a long illness. Formally of Hamble, Lydd, SECOAT, WMU and SFT. Ron will be remembered by hundreds of ex students who have slaved over his Flight Plans to 3 decimal points and by his colleagues who had the great pleasure of working with him.

I had the good fortune to work with Ron for a number of years. Although many people will have known him as a Navigation and Flight Planning instructor, his knowledge of most aviation subjects was extensive and he was always able to chip in a word of wisdom to less experienced instructors in all areas.
And to echo Groover, a real Gentleman.
Favourite memory: Dinners at the Selmun Palace Hotel, discussing the nature of life and the antics of the German holidaymakers, mid contract on Malta.
So long Ron.
