I still don’t want to believe this. A dear friend and mentor. I wish so much he hadn’t left us. As someone wrote, heaven is due for a major audio update. Bruce was such an experienced pilot – something crazy must have happened up there. There are scant few people in my life who are examples of both exceptional achievement and genuine humility. Bruce was one of them. I always learned something from him, and he was always kind and generous. Words can’t express how much he will be missed.

Tail number N50BJ - so long buddy.

Anyone interested in the upcoming memorial can contact me (JL -at- JPS.NET) for details.

A personal memorial on my BLOG with links to other memorials. FOH Magazine has an especially good write up.

Someone has just created a Wikipedia page for Bruce: Bruce Jackson (audio engineer) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bruce has left the world with a legacy bigger than most would realise. Sad news.
