No sure why you need a thread.DJ was a good friend, generous with his time and effort for helping others, and when I look back I can only remember him happy, smiling and optimistic - even when I wasn't.
Low level gyroscopics have killed two friends thus far - DJ and Mark Walden.
Both of them were far more accomplished aerobatic pilots than I will ever be.
Anyway, you wanted a thread....crack on, old son.

Because some aircraft accidents have had threads and the AAIB report provides some closure to a thread. Although in this case it seems to potentially raise questions over medicals.Not sure how extensive an airline pilots medical is these days, certainly my parents had a friend who was a pilot many years ago who had just passed his medical. Is due to fly a plane from Gatwick, but decides he doesnt feel well and asks the airline to replace him Says whilst you do that I'll do the preflight inspection of the aircraft, and had a heart attack dropping down dead on the tarmac,
However in my view has to be the way to go.
