Sad news

I only just saw this sad news. I was negotiating with Tony Corr for one of the first plots in his AirParc (although we did not take it any further) and even translated the website into French for him. So I was shocked to read this thread. Condolences to his family.

Tony Corr was more than a pilot as he was involved with the AirPark in France.

Here’s the ad from when it was for sale

it is registered to SOUTHERN AIRCRAFT CONSULTANCY, as are the majority of American registered aircraft that are based in the UK

The plane is owned by a trust with an address in Cornwall, so may be it does not reside there. There is a rumour that the plane has been recently sold and this may have been a maintenance or training flight.

If it is the one owned by someone in Cornwall, do you know who owns it? I got my PPL down there.

Crash photo shows the tail as N9…., a possibility would be N95RS, registered to an owner in Cornwall.

According to LAAS, there are about eleven Navajo’s from the U.S. currently resident in the U.K. The crashed aircraft took off from Kidlington but was not based there.
