Hi all,
Every Donner will have known Jack, who passed recently aged 67. He was a civilian instructor in the Aptce school and Bolton Street tech, specialising in piston engines. He was a thorough gentleman, universally well-regarded inside and outside the Don. He was an enthusiast of all things aviation and was known even to have friends in high places in Nasa, Aer Lingus, the IAA and any other organisation connected with aviation in Ireland and beyond. He had been a Sergeant in Baldonnel, back in the heyday of the Chipmunk and was a fount of stories, anecdotes and knowledge.
rest in peace
GttC
