Sorry to hear today of Waynes passing. He did a tremenderous job holding the skiplane operation together for all those years. Val, our thoughts are with you and the family.

He will be fondly remembered as a great guy and an Aviation achiever
Our deepest sympathy to all Wayne's family

Val, Nick and Kate and extended whanau, deepest condolences to you all for Waynes passing. Mine, Kath, Simon, Kylie and Zoes love to you all.
Lots of shared memories, I remember your arrival at Mount Cook, the train story still makes me smile, (avalanches off the Sefton ice shelf misheard!) our time as neighbours in Franz and of course Waynes extremely successful time as one of Zoe's rowing coach's a major highlight.
It takes something special to take a couple of teenage girls to a national age-group rowing title as a coaching team over and above the effort Zoe and Caitlin personally put in that won't be soon forgotten.
Our thoughts and love to you all.
