Bruce Gavin RIP

It is with much sadness that I announce the passing of Bruce Gavin. Born and bred in Matamata he  spent his working career as a teacher, mostly in Matamata but also for a time in Feilding. He was also involved in the community particularly in community assistance work and at Matamata's Firth Tower Museum. A quiet, unassuming man, he always had a passion for those in need.

Bruce developed his passion for aviation as a boy and particularly developed an interest in New Zealand airline activity. He was a long-time member of the Aviation Historical Society of New Zealand and over the years wrote many pieces for the various AHSNZ publications. He also wrote Heartland High Flier, the definitive history of Air Central as well as being one of the authors of Taking Off on the small pioneering airlines of New Zealand from 1945 to 1970. He had a vast and unsurpassed knowledge of the New Zealand third level airlines and it was he who was a big influence on me developing my interest in the third level airlines. Over the years we have exchanged many letters, photographs, newspaper cuttings and timetables. Bruce was a big supporter of this blog and my go to person for so much information. I was humbled last year when he gifted me with his photograph and research collection.

Bruce is survived by his wife Patricia, four children and three grandchildren.

Rest in peace good and gentle friend.
