Another Pilot Gone


Recommended Posts

I haven't seen anything here about this accident in Chile. It has been reported on El Mercurio and television. A Canadian pilot, Alex Deuran, was killed in a crop dusting accident near Taltal, Chile, working for the company named Helicar. I include the name because the accident occurred Saturday and family should have been informed by now. Condolances to his family and friends.

Very sad news,

 

I knew Alex a little having brief chats with him at the hangar, he was a really nice guy and everyone seemed to like him as well. All I can do is offer my sincerest of condolences to his friends and family.

I was working with Alex, all but a few months ago, nice fellow from France i believe. We crossed paths several times on the hanger floor. A superb pilot and was liked by everyone.

 

Way to young couldn't have been more than 30. Very sad day indeed.

 

 

Gods speed Alex! :(

Alexandre Remon was also an excellent instructor, and his name in my logbook is now memory... Everyone loved him... He was 32 and leaves a pregnant wife in Québec, a mourning family in France and very, very sad friends... :(

 

No! :( :( :(
