Australian yachting icon and winemaker Sir James Hardy has died in Adelaide, aged 90. The former America’s Cup skipper and Australian Olympian died peacefully on Thursday. A giant of the sailing world, Sir James represented Australia twice as an Olympian – first at the Tokyo 1964 Games and four years later at the Mexico Olympics. He also competed in 13 Sydney to Hobart races. He then became skipper of Sir Frank Packer’s 1970 America’s Cup challenge, with Gretel II losing 4-1 to the US yacht Intrepid. When he was 21, Sir James joined the family wine company Thomas Hardy and Sons in 1953, working as a shipping clerk. He was appointed chairman in 1981 and non-executive director in 1992 when it merged to become BRL Hardy Wine Company.

Hundreds of people have attended a service in Orange to remember a “pioneer of Australian aviation” who “broke a few rules”. The memorial for Max Hazelton, who died in April at the age of 95, was held in a hangar at Orange Airport beside a four-seater Auster Aglet — one of the first planes he flew — with a 34-seat turboprop Saab 340 sitting on the tarmac outside. Mr Hazelton’s colleague Gerald Ingham described him as a hero who was famous for his “that was unfortunate” quote when things didn’t go to plan. “Max used to get into the odd scrap or two with aeroplanes,” Mr Ingham said. During Mr Hazelton’s years of flying, “the odd scrap or two” included running out of petrol, overshooting runways, and famously, being lost for six days in 1954 after crashing his aircraft at Oberon.
