Crash at Boonah Golf Course 14/01/2024

Wake was cancelled for the public because the grounds would be too soggy for all the expected cars. Family only. I think there will be one later for friends. But I happened to be at the field working on my plane at the southern end of the field, so got to see the planes flying from the field. First a jet did several low passes! I think an L-39. Also a Tiger Moth, I think one of the Moths Dave flew regularly. A Cessna Bird dog, Boeing Steerman and Phil's red STOL.

It was a great send off for Dave, The boys did him proud with a formation Fly-By & took several of Dave's family members for rides in the Stearman & Moth. The L-39 was impressive. Dave will be sadly missed. We have lost a Great Pilot/Teacher & a mate. RIP Dave.
