It is with great sadness that today we said good bye to a member of the Castrol Aviator family. On Wednesday 25th February Peter ‘Pip’ Borrman died while practicing his aerobatic routine for the upcoming Australian International Airshow at Avalon.
Pip joined the Castrol Aviator family in 2004 as our spokesperson for Castrol Aviator range of piston engine oils in Australia. During his time with us he became the very public face of the Aviator brand appearing at airshows, motorsport and charity events across Australia.
Pip came from an aviation family. His father, a pilot, began teaching Pip to fly at the age of nine. He had over 5,300 hours of flight time.
Pip will be remembered by most for his skillful aerial displays. He was a dedicated aviator and was highly regarded within the aviation community for his professionalism and commitment to safety.
Our thoughts are with Pip’s family, wife Janet, son Edwin and daughter Sarah. |
