Wow, thank you for responding. It really is lovely to hear from people that knew him.

I remember a little bit about White Waltham, and possibly even some staff members (if they are still there). I do miss that part of my life as I always enjoyed being around the aeroplanes. Plus as a kid it was the coolest thing in the world. I’ve often be tempted to take a drive and visit. It would bring back a ton of memories.

Maybe I should try and get in touch with Alan Cassidy and Paul Bonhomme. Not sure where to start…

I certainly remember him being quite the character, laughing a lot like you said. I used to enjoy being taken up in the aeroplanes. I remember him telling me he was going to spin (not sure of the correct term) the plane once with me in it. I wasn’t impressed, luckily he was only winding me up. Barbel was an exceptional woman too, I spoke to her recently actually.
