REVIEW OF PILOT DEATH

Guy HENDERSON

The pilot of a crashed air ambulance has been named as Guy Henderson, 40. He was accompanied by paramedic John Keith McCreanor, 35. The Islander aircraft, operated by Loganair, was preparing to land at Machrihanish airport when it went down.

Mr. Henderson, from Broxburn, and Mr McCreanor, from Paisley, were flying from Glasgow to Campbeltown to pick up a sick child when contact was lost shortly after midnight.

A statement released by Strathclyde Police on behalf of Mr Henderson's family said they were "devastated, but consoled by the fact that he was working in his lifelong ambition to fly above the Highlands and Islands of Scotland".
