I am very sorry indeed to hear of Peter Clarke's death. I can't pretend to
have known him but he did fly me in G-YURO in July 1994 and his skills
impressed me greatly - especially when he made a pass at the PA-161 in which
I arrived at Wombleton ! The sight of the Europa pulling away from the
Warrior after flying alongside and escorting us to the field is not one I
shall forget.
There isn't any easy way to think of this or moral to draw - I lost a good
friend here last year when he flew into a mountain - but I do hope that his
family is recovering from what must have been a very bad blow.
