So sorry to hear of the passing of Rob Butler. He visited me when I was working in Nicaragua in 1987, and he was a great support for any technical problems that I was facing.

It's almost 40 years since we last flew together, and almost as long since we were last in touch, but Rob played a big part in some of the most significant stages of my life, and I'm very sad to hear that he's gone. Many terrific memories, all of which raise a smile.
