Really bad having life, and time, punctuated by the loss of such good people.

Haven't heard his name for many years so I wonder what he ended up doing.

"It isn't pumps, quite a few of us on here are late 40's early 50's. How many will not be around in 2024?"

That would be a miracle from where I'm sitting....:-(

if you have ever watched the bbc documentary series 'coast' mainly filmed around the coast of britain and a few other countries like ireland and france then mike smith was  the helicopter pilot in a lot of them and also i think that was part of his business
