It is with great sadness that we report on the death of fellow pilot William Hillick in an accident at Abbeyshrule Aerodrome on Sunday evening. William was a passionate pilot and well known to pilots around the country. He was a big supporter of FlyingInIreland Magazine during its 10-year history and was one of our most loyal advertisers. William was always a friendly and welcoming face in Abbeyshrule and will be sadly missed by the Irish Aviation community. On behalf of the team at Flying In Ireland we would like to express our deepest sympathies to William’s family and friends. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.
In line with our policy Flying in Ireland, does not engage in speculation as to cause of Aviation accidents. The Air Accident Investigation Unit will publish a report in due course.
