Crash co-pilot was ‘all-action hero’ devoted to flying career

THE grieving mother of a young co-pilot killed in the Cork air crash described her son as “an all-action hero” devoted to a flying career.

Andrew Cantle had only been with Manx2 for three weeks when the plane he was flying crashed on landing in thick fog.

Ann Cantle revealed her husband John saw the first reports of the accident while on the internet but initially thought their son was safe.
