Bobbi and I are saddened by the loss of two of our own. While we hadn't met
Paul, this past Sun N Fun we sat for several hours and chatted as the air
show was overhead with William and John Wheeler about Europa's, politics
both European and American and life in general. It was a great time had by
all. William and Paul will be missed.

Below are two links to articles in the the South Wales Argus. The first
story hinted that they may have hit wires.

David and all,
I got the same note from Oliver Lane and sent him the attached photo of
William and I, at Epcot, this past April, along with a short note. Mary and
I are still in shock...

Dear Mr Lane,
I am sure by now that you have seen enough responses on the email forum to
William and Paul's deaths to understand just how friendly the two were, and
the regard we all held for their friendship.
I enclose a photograph of the two of them, taken at Barkaby, Stockholm, in
summer 2004 when we flew together up to northern Finland in our Europa
aircraft.
I do not think I can add any more at the moment - you will also find my
email on the list this afternoon - they will be sadly missed by a lot of
friends and our thoughts and condolences go to their families.
All the best,
David Bosomworth
Ps. I will copy this reply to the email list so that others you may have
contacted can see that you have received a reply, I know that David Joyce
has sent some pictures too.

Dear Mr Joyce,
I am a journalist with the South Wales Argus newspaper and I noticed you
had posted a message on the Europa Club's forum regarding the deaths of
William Mills and Paul Sweeting.
We are putting together a tribute piece for them and wondered if you would
like to add anything, or whether you had a suitable photograph of either, or
both of them, that you might like us to use.
I am contactable on 07949 030036 or 01873 880556, or by emailing me back
at this address.
Many thanks,
Oliver Lane
Deputy news editor
South Wales Argus
