It's like a free ride, when you've already paid.

I think you'll find, it's like being given a free ride when you're entitled to ride for free anyway.

Sad.

And how bloody typical of the Daily Wail to capitalise "First Day", just to sensationalise it a bit.

Anyway, donation made. Let's hope that at least a bit more gets raised in his name, not that this will be much consolation to his poor family.

That really IS falling at the first hurdle.
Sad indeed.
Some pretty dire WX conditions out there yesterday.

Very sad end to a worthy endeavour.

I'm rather uncomfortable that the thread on the Pprune discussing the accident was actually started by the unfortunate victim himself.

Always sad to hear a fellow aviator loosing his life. Very sad indeed.

I found it ironic that someone died trying to raise money for people who kill for money

That's an intelligent comment.

Terrible news, how tragic. I'll be helping him raise the £150k.

Whilst wishing to avoid what I'm sure will become a bandwagon of stunning proportions, I must state that I am astonsished that anyone would willingly portray themselves as such a repugnant cock on a public forum.

I think we should just avoid the potential for bandwagon, rise above it and ignore the prick.

Now that's irony
