Aviation Heritage UK announce sudden death of their Chairman, Dr Robert Pleming. 

It is with shock and great sadness that I learned of the sudden death of our Chairman, Dr Robert Pleming, on February 2.
 
Robert was a true visionary whose determination to restore Vulcan XH558 to flight captured the hearts and minds of millions of people. His determination was an inspiration and an exemplar of how to bring a difficult project to fruition.
 
The work he has done to raise the profile of Aviation Heritage UK during his 5 years as Chairman has been fantastic and he will be a great miss to us all.
 
Our thoughts go to his family and friends at this difficult time.
