Obituary

In Memory of Chris Keeping (1949 – 2020)

It is with great sadness that I report the passing of Chris Keeping on the 22nd March 2020. Chris was a dear friend, a fellow aviator and a real character of the Aviation Club — a legend if ever there was one.

Chris arrived in Hong Kong in 1970 as a Probationary Inspector with the Police Tactical Unit, Delta Company, Royal Hong Kong Police (RHKP). During his career with the RHKP, Chris served in various positions and locations, including Instructor at the Police Training School, Kowloon CID, Kowloon Vice, and finally in the (Admin) North Officer as a Senior Superintendent.

However, Chris’ first love was for flying. On arriving in Hong Kong, he joined the Hong Kong Flying Club where he became an AFI. He also served as a General Committee member for a number of years from 1974 onwards.

However, I didn’t meet Chris until 1984 when I joined the Aviation Club. This was after the amalgamation of the Hong Kong Flying Club and the Aero Club of Hong Kong in 1982. In Chris’ own words “in those days the flying was good, the drinking was good, damn it life was good!”

His passion for flying was only matched by his love for a few ‘toots’ in the Aero Bar afterwards. His party piece was drinking a pint of Carlsberg while standing on his head, a feat witnessed by many on more than one occasion!

This all changed one fine summer’s Friday evening in 1985 when Chris had booked a slot for a student. His student, whose name will remain anonymous, was a somewhat nervous aviator who had taken a long time to be ready for his first solo. Chris had decided to do a few circuits with his nervous student at Sek Kong in VR-HIX. The exercise would involve a couple of engine failures after take-off (EFATO) before handing him over to a QFI for a first solo. The tower at Sek Kong had closed for the evening so Chris and his student had the airfield all to themselves. I will quote Chris’ own recollection of the following events as he eloquently documented in his eulogy to the late Graham Barlow, his CFI at the time:

“My student performed some reasonable landings, certainly good enough for a solo attempt, and so the time arrived for the main menu ‘engine failures after takeoff’. No turning back to the runway, land straight ahead avoiding obstacles if possible. We were using R/W 11. Naturally I demonstrated the first and second engine failures which followed the usual procedure, four hundred feet throttle closed, lower the nose to establish the correct glide speed monitor the landing area ahead, etc., etc. After two demonstrations I handed over control to my nervous student who I have to say performed quite well.

‘Right’ I said ‘I will demonstrate a final one and then we will head off back to the club for a toot or two’. I released the brakes, started the patter entered the down hill slope and selected first stage of flap. It was shortly after we entered the

final stage of this flight when I realized that things were not quite right. “I have control” I bellowed at my hapless student (he was following me through) which probably aggravated the situation, as normally I was a fairly quiet sort of instructor.

The throttle had already been firewalled and I should have liked to have said that I was still firmly and slowly easing back on the stick in a cool and collected manner but no, I gave it a bloody great yank at the last moment in the hope of getting back to the club intact. We impacted the runway slightly left of the centre line (funny how you remember details such as this) to the sounds of a couple of thuds and the torturous sounds of aluminium meeting tarmac.

As the airplane started turning sideways I realized that a few toots that evening had gone right out of the window, and what was more the passenger door was open and my nervous student had disappeared into the ether. This annoyed me somewhat, as in those last slithering seconds of motion I had been pattering aloud, for the benefit of said student, the emergency shut down checks and he wasn’t even there to appreciate them. According to an eye witness shortly after impact the passenger door opened and my nervous student rolled off the wing in a sort of fetal position amongst a shower of sparks, and after picking himself up disappeared across the airfield to the North in the general direction of Sek Kong village at a fairly swift pace, never to be seen again. A pity he really was ready to go solo.”

Notwithstanding this little ‘mishap’ in India X-ray, Chris continued to fly and instruct at the Club. He was liked by all and adored by his students. This is evident from the front cover of Flight International printed specially for Chris by another of his students at that time, Nat Bauducco.

Chris was also a bit of a poet and was usually called upon by the Club Manager to prepare speeches for members’ leaving parties, which were quite common during the 80s and 90s due to the transient nature of Hong Kong. Some of these speeches were legendary.

Chris went to live in France when he retired from the RHKP. I guess this is where he found his new love of red wine! However, France was not for Chris, and he returned again to his beloved Hong Kong. He found new employment at AVESCo Airport Security, where he worked for a further 10 years before retiring for the final time. He then returned to Devon in the UK to live on the family farm. However, his love of flying continued, and he was in the process of building his own aircraft.

It is only fitting that I include eulogies provided by Chris Thatcher, an Instructor and DCFI at the Club during the 70s and 80s and his closest of friends, and Louis Ma, a colleague and friend from the RHKP.

The eulogy by Chris Thatcher was read at the funeral service by Chris’ son Miles.

Eulogy by Chris Thatcher

“Good afternoon everyone. For those of you who don’t recognize my voice, my name is Chris Thatcher a friend of Chris’ for some 40 years.

Chris’ ability to “pen” a poem together was well known. I only wish I had his skills. His “Odes” and poems became legendary. Full of wit, humour and beautifully written. I have one myself, an ode to Kipper, therein lies a long story.

I first met Chris at the Hong Kong Flying Club in the early 1970s, where he was a Committee member and Private Pilot. We soon became friends and I introduced him to the Aero Club via “Traitors Gate” a passageway through the hangar to the Aero Cub.

With Chris’ professional and cheerful manor, he soon completed his Instructors rating. Well known amongst all his fellow pilots, Chris spent many years flying the skies of the New Territories with his students. Tales abound.

He gained immense respect with RAF 28 squadron, 660Army Air Corp, RHKAAF. This was all gained in his spare time. His full-time job of course was with the RHK Police Force where he held many positions as Superintendent of Police. He liked working in his RCCCP post, Commander of Delta PTU squad and police instructor at the Police Training School and being OIC of the Vietnam refugees camp.

His love of Friday afternoon Mess curries was well known. These lunches were very fluid and always ended up at the Aero Club where he would meet up with fellow pilots in particular Cathay pilots to discuss the pro’s and con’s of flying the Cessna 152 over a 747. These discussions would go on well into the wee hours, with Chris debating the lift formula with Cathay pilots. Eventually when Chris had won, the Tak Ku Ling Hunting Cry would be sounded and Chris would ring the bell. Further debates with the Parachute Club members were always amusing.

Chris also had a love of model aeroplanes which he built and tested the integrity of. He also tested the integrity of one or two of his cars in particular the white Volvo he had. The integrity of a real aeroplane “IX” was also tested in 1985, yet another great yarn.

Besides the Police Force and flying, Chris loved his orchids of which he had many beautiful specimens. Persian cats also featured together with “Shenna” his Alsatian dog.

Upon retirement Chris went to a France, became bored and came back to Hong Kong and joined AVESCo Security working at the airport. Here I would always meet him after a flight for a coffee and ciggy to discuss, you guessed it,

aviation. He was always interested in stories of jet jockeys from afar. I think after 10 years with AVESCo, Chris retired “again” and this time returning to Devon to live on the family farm.

Keeping himself busy, he tended his vintage sports car and to keep the aviation theme going started to build his own aircraft, a project that was always on going.

This is the hard part, how to finish. We all have great memories of Chris’s exploits over the years. I ask you all, too keep them going and have a chuckle and smile when you think of Chris and remember the Ta Ku Ling Hunting Cry.

Lyn and I cannot be there today for obvious Covid 19 restrictions, but we are with you in thought and will visit as soon as we can. I would like to extend a very special thank you to Donna and Miles for allowing me to partake in this service to Chris.

God Bless Chris.

Chris Thatcher, his friend

Eulogy by Louis Ma

I am extremely saddened to hear of the passing of Chris Keeping, he was indeed a great human being, a gentleman, a great leader (not always understood by the lesser) and a great friend to many. He always had time for everyone.

Chris loved people, had great faith in human kind and he believed that all people were inherently decent. He could even be nice to criminals whilst carrying out his duties fully. I am glad I had the opportunity to work with him, his D Company, his Officers and his men.

Chris’ unique leadership skills and people’s skills has ensured D Company’s successful and smooth transition in training as well as during development. His style and influence permeated throughout his D Company and all his men. Chris’ relaxed style of leadership commanded loyalty and respect from his officers and his men and brought the best out of them without fear or favour.

In being so Chris had ensured that he had plenty of time in hand to enjoy a few beers in the mess whilst producing success aided by his men?

My condolences to those who love and miss him and I envy your privilege to have had served with him. I wish I had that chance!

Chris, rest in peace mate, there will never be another one like you! Legends never die, they continue to influence the universe in their own unique ways.

With sadness and respect,

Louis Ma Ex. PTU HQ Staff Inspector, RHKP

Chris is survived by his loving wife Donna and son Miles.

The family did not wish for wreathes at the funeral but instead asked for donations to be made to The National Forest in the UK;

“dedicate a tree” with oak or other hardwood recommended. However, those with no links to the UK may wish to find a similar project in their home country should they wish to make a donation.

RIP my friend.
