So sad. But a rich and long life well lived.

I counted it an absolute privilege to have read posts by such a gentleman.

Having long been banished from the unhallowed portal that is TOP I was hitherto unaware of Danny42C but having looked to see who he was I am filled respect for the chap. Clearly the world has lost a good man who had a good innings. May he RIP.

Never understood how he ended up in Middlesbrough.

I know he ended his RAF career with the Auxiliaries at RAF Thornaby, but I ended my time at RAF Marham didn't settle in Kings Lynn.

That thread was the longest running thread ever in TOP. Before I left for these hallowed portals I got the feeling that he was wondering whether it had run its course and, just maybe, it was time to stop. It's a wonder he kept it going for so long (having taken over from Cliff nemo before him). They brought together some wonderful stories over a very long time. I know it's not original, but I doubt we'll see his like again (because they're all gone).

So sad that he has gone. A wonderful innings, very well played.

RIP Sir.

An amazing thread he ran. Thank the Lord that Wankin Wob didn't manage to put him off by deleting, banning or other tactics.

May I ask the name of the thread and what particular forum at TOP he contributed to?

Slash, it's in 'Gaining a Pilot's Brevet in WW II', in the Military Aviation forum.
