Not sure what to say?

Just pulled out my private ground school certificate from 1980 the Allen signed. Remember him like it was yesterday. Great guy.

Allan gave me a PPL checkride in June 1999 out of Palwaukee. Al was a great and active advocate to the pilot profession, and to aviation at large. Today I still carry some of his words, and I keep remembering him as a great aviation fellow.

With my respects,

Jerome A. Werner
Corporate pilot

Cal and I are soooo very sad to learn of Al's passing. He was so giving to learning and loving aviation and helping others immensely. He will be missed greatly. Our deepest sympathies to his family.

I knew Al for over 25 years, he did my ATP checkride back in 1992 and I sent over 50 students to him when I was a CFI at Palwaukee during the early 1990's. He was a great person who loved flying, he will be missed. Godspeed, blue skies and tailwinds my friend...

While I didn't know Allan well, he took the time to speak to me about flying in the Chicago area after I moved to the US and after an absence from flying of 30 years. He pointed me to the direction of Leading Edge Flying Club, and getting me reintroduced to flying at Chicago Executive. He was a true gentleman, and always had time for my questions. He will be missed.
