The, to long didnt read version:

Awesome pilot, loved by customers because he always got in, no matter the weather. A client who would call another company to do the trip, if there regular company said no. Out come, Grumman Goose flying boat, hits 100ft high very small island in IMC killing 6. Good read into client pressure and flying in bad weather. I realize its from Canada. The pilot was Australian.
