Award-winning pilot Tom Grieve, 57, was flying above Pattaya Bay on Saturday afternoon when his machine appeared to lose power. Tom tried to make an emergency landing but the aircraft clipped a pier poll and crashed into the water. Tom, who is believed to be from ÂLanarkshire, died in hospital from chest injuries while his passenger Patrick Esser, from Lyme Regis, Dorset, broke his arm."
