Keith introduced himself as an aviator through and through. Heather, he suggested, thought she was marrying a farmer but he feels that aviation and being a Rotarian are intertwined.
With respect to his aviation career, Keith noted some key moments that were special to him.
In the 70’s the helicopter industry was having its challenges with many accidents at that time and he felt he did his bit at this challenging time to reduce this.
He also remembers his involvement in the Sky Ferry accident which included a Court of Inquiry as an expert witness. This went for 7 weeks and was a very challenging task.
