David Purley (who's father owned LEC refridgeration) lived in Felpham just outside Bognor Regis. Unfortunately he was killed while flying his stunt aircraft just off the coast at Bognor. I remember his Silverstone accident, as it happened just after Ronnie Peterson was killed in Italy due to complications when he broke a leg. Purley had 16 breaks in his and still made it.
