Sad to hear. In his own inimitable way he helped me a fair bit, for free, with getting the 100 turbo 'going good', directly and indirectly via his website. I'll go and fire it up today in salute, he said he did like the sound of an MC2.

Well he helped a lot of people along his way, and I doubt there are many of us who haven't looked at his website for some piece of info over the years.

A sad day indeed for a once talented engineer who fell victim to alcohol !

a pity really because Phil was gifted.

It is indeed sad news.

What will happen to all the data on his website? as it would be a shame to let all his data and experience be consigned to the internet NLA list.
