Just out of interest, and for those newer members of the forum who might not know of Bruce Shepherd, I've attached a memories booklet to this post, which this forum created after his passing.

It was printed and shared with all who attended his funeral. Some great memories there and funny stories.
You can also check out this Plane Spotting Video which features Shep.

To have a recognised spotting area in his name at Sydney Airport, where he spent a great deal of time, making many new friends, sharing good times, right up until he passed away, is just so fitting. He'd absolutely deny it, but I know he'd be quietly very proud.
