A fellow RV'er emailed me today to give me some sad news from
South Australia. One of our RV-10 builder brothers from West
Australia, Indran Chelvanayagam, has unfortunately passed. He
had looked forward to meeting many of us again at OSH, which
is where I first met him about 3 or 4 seasons ago. He was a
very friendly person, and I believe he did some good humanitarian
work in other countries for many people. He talked of all of
his American RV friends with great fondness. He was also a mentor
to some of the other builders in West Australia. His passing
was not aviation related. While I have no details, the way it
was put to me was "unfortunately Indran was suffering with depression
unbeknown to all his friends in our local town". I'm sure he
probably did not realize what a loss his fellow builders would
feel.

Tim - I did not know. I really don't know what to say.

I'm sure most, (if not all) of the -10 community in Australia has had
some interaction with Indran. Always positive, always constructive and
always willing to help - he will be missed. The Oz -10 community is
small and close-nit indeed. A very sad day for us here.

Sad news. Very sad news. Any way we can jointly send a message to his
family? Might help a little.

What a shock he was a top bloke and we were going to catch up with him in
Aug when we fly around AUS .

Such a shame.

Well that just sucks. I've lost too many friends in the last couple years in both aviation and my personal life. Indran was a hell of a nice guy and we hung out together a bit when he was in OSH a couple years ago. I just bugged him a little while back about when he was going to make it to OSH again. He will be missed.
