Just a few words

We received news on Tuesday that Alex Charles was killed in a crash on Monday while doing a tourist flight for his day job with Tasman Sky Adventures, a company he started a few years ago. Alex did much of the flying for my low-cost photogrammetry work last year.
I counted Alex as a friend, and I had dinner with him and his family whenever I was in the neighborhood. And, I’ll admit, bummed more than a few free rides in his microlight.
I’m not sure I knew him well enough to say something trite like “he died doing what he loved.” But I suspect it’s close enough to the truth.
Our thoughts go out to Alex’s family and the crew at Tasman Sky Adventures.
