With sadness I would confirm my friend Bryan Allsop and well known Europa pilot
died in the incident at Apperknowle / Coal Aston airstrip on Sunday. The AAIB
continue their investigation into the loss of power and loss of control during
takeoff, resulting in vertical high speed dive into the ground.
Have today spent time with his widow Sylvia and family. All our thoughts are
clearly
with them at this difficult time. The late Bryan Allsop requested that I
be an executor of his estate. I will respect Bryan's final need and continue
to offer support to Sylvia both in this role and as friend.
Regards
Bob
