Sad day in NZ Aviation on Sunday,

Bob McCready passed away age 75.

Wonderful man, Awesome Engineer, Pilot and friend.

Never forget the fun flying with you in DNF (Does not fly) Airtourers for ever and COM (172) and enjoying your company always

Take Care and sour like an eagle mate

I met the man , So nice , he reaconed I was jabbed with the aviation needle once , just a little to much , for all he did , it was a pleasure

Always sad for someone to pass away, no matter who it is.
Regards with friends and family.

Lovely Funeral today, excellent send of for an exceptional man.

One of the first engineers building FU24s for Aerospace of which I didn't know.

Awesome fly over by WAC, including an airtourer ofcourse, of which I believe he was Co. (in spirit ofcourse)

Good to see the pilots and engineers of the past and present seeing Bob off.

See ya big guy, Hopefully not to soon but in the next 100 maybe

Cheers my friend

Just to show the type of man he was, he would help anyone.
Back in the early nineties I had an engine failure approaching Hood aerodrome, put her down and who repaired her for the flight out the next day?

On holiday in the states he visited and was made an Honorary Coronal of the Confederate Airforce of America. Why? He jumped in and repaired an aircraft in distress (a P51 I believe)

Bob would help anyone.

A hard Man , but a big teddy bear.

All who knew Bob were in deed very Privileged.
