    Hmm, that's interesting! I am sure that I met Laurie McIver somewhere along the way. He also operated helicopters and had a contract for the gas pipeline inspection into Sydney. According to the following he passed away a few years ago, just like Hoxton Park. RIP

    Not sure if the following is allowed, so mods please delete if not:


    Hoxton Park Airport closes (Page 1) / Other Transport / Forums / Railpage

    I heard that Laurie McIver died some years ago, and his flying school was shutting down. Laurie trained Dick Smith at one time. HOX fostered Aussie pioneers and entrepreneurs.

    I remember now. Laurie had the Jetranger painted in AGL colours.
    I worked for Dick Smith in the early 80’s. You always knew when he was arriving. The roof would shake and the warehouse would smell of burnt Jet-A as it was sucked through the aircon The art of organisation

    I am not sure what AGL stands for, John. Australian Geographic?
