Talk:Bill Gunston

Bill Gunston death?

Can anyone confirm or deny Bill Gunston's death last weekend (1st/2nd June 2013)? It's being reported on a number of Aviation and Aerospace related forums but so far there hasn't been any Obituaries or 'official' anouncements. Apparently passed away unexpectedly after a short illness. 83.70.245.31 (talk) 10:36, 6 June 2013 (UTC)


 * +RIP Mr. Gunston. Unfortunately, he was one of the most biased aviation writers ever. If it wasn't British, it was somehow, inferior.  I'm sure his books played well for the home crowd, however, for those of us colonials, his entries had us scratching our heads.
 * Some of his assessments are indeed hilarious. For example his comparison of the Tornado ADV vs the 'inferior' F-15.
 * The F-15 was faster, lighter, longer ranged, had a heavier payload, and dramatically more capable electronics (radar, navigation, etc.). Dreadful.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.157.255.184 (talk) 15:36, 22 October 2016 (UTC)


 * Perhaps he knew things you and others were/are unaware of. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.30.162.216 (talk) 10:09, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
