Fellow Bimmer (6er) driver and whirlybird pilot, Gary Ticehurst died in a helicopter crash outback a few days ago (http://www.abc.net.au/news/2011-08-19/gary-ticehurst-obituary/2846498).
I've never met him, but his company operates near here (http://www.filmhelicoptersaustralia.com/) (Northern Sydney).
A crying shame. He went down with mates he loved, doing what they loved- and were so good at. All of them experienced guys with outstanding careers and contributions to our communities.

May they all R.I.P. - with that carton of beer they were so famous for flying into camp with.
