The death of a descendant of one of the earliest settlers in Central Hawke's Bay has sent shockwaves around the community.
Barry Kenneth Bruce Gollan died after his bulldozer rolled at Totaranui Farm, Waipawa, on Saturday.
Emergency services were called to the scene at around 4.45pm that afternoon. It is
understood Gollan was found dead a few metres from the bulldozer.
Gollan, believed to be in his 70s, was a "stalwart" of the Central Hawke's Bay Aero Club, having been a member since the 1960s.
Instructor Ross Macdonald said he was a "very experienced pilot that everybody looked up to as a mentor".
