 Chris, 
  
 Gareth was never ATC in the true sense. He was/is an Air Weapons 
 Controller whereas I was an Air Traffic Controller (Tower - VFR & Radar 
 - IFR)for the first portion of my military career (12 years). I've been 
 working the Air Defence side of the career field since then (5 years). 
 We both now fly on E-3 AWACS. Gareth is flying with NATO and I'm flying 
 with the USAF. 
  
 I haven't been able to stay current gliding or private pilot wise since 
 I got married and the family grew. 
  
 I read about your Dad and Ross when started looking at the group again a 
 few months back. My condolences but I'm sure Ross, Crawford and your Dad 
 are watching us and smiling as always. 
  
 Keep in touch, 
  
 Randy
