Eddie McMullen: 'True character and great aviation man' dies at 66

EDDIE McMULLEN, the founder of animal transport specialist Intradco, has died, aged 66, having battled brain cancer since it was diagnosed in February, reports London's Air Cargo News.

London Gatwick-based Chapman Freeborn, which acquired Intradco in early 2014, issued the following statement:



"We are sad to announce that Eddie McMullen has passed away. Eddie serviced the air cargo industry over a career spanning 40+ years, most notably as owner of air charter specialists Intradco.



"He was diagnosed with brain cancer in early February of this year, and in true Eddie style he battled until his final days, and never let his illness slow him down from enjoying the things he loved.



"As messages of condolence have poured in from all over the world, the words 'honest', 'old school', 'maverick', and of course 'fun-loving' all appear hundreds of times."



On behalf of the Chapman Freeborn Group, Shahe Ouzounian said: "Eddie was a stalwart of the charter industry, a true character and a great aviation man."
