___ PCN FLIGHT WEST is sponsored by the Pilot Communication Network and is a service of the PCN provided for the Delta Pilot Retired family of pilot groups. Flight West was started and is maintained to accomplish two main goals. After we become aware of a colleague who has Flown West, 1. We aim to produce a “timely” notice sent to our community that allows for support and interaction from our group toward the grieving family of our friend and colleague. 2. Then, we aim to “archive” that notice on our Flown West Blogspot as a lasting accessible place of Dignity and Honor of our colleague for family legacy and posterity. Contributor contact info is generally removed before posting (unless requested otherwise).

WC/RW/RC Capt. Bill Feringer

~ IN MEMORY ~
WC/RW/RC Capt. William C. ‘Bill’ Feringer
October 8, 1922 ~ December 18, 2012

Word has been received of the passing of Empires/WC/RW/RC early pilot Captain Bill Feringer. I have not been able to locate an obituary in print but I believe William C. ‘Bill’ was born to parents Frederick C. and Amelia Feringer, and that Bill was born/raised in the Seattle area. From what I can determine, his father Frederick C. Feringer, a well-known organist who died in 1933 leaving mother Amelia to raise Bill and his younger brother Frederick Richard ‘Dick’. Dick died in February 2012. Bill was a WWII Army Air Corps veteran having enlisted December 12, 1941. Friends tell us that Bill hired on with Empires Airlines 09-26-1951. Bill would have gone through the various airline mergers...Empires to West Coast to Hughes...and if he retired at age 60, he would have been with Republic Airlines at the time of retirement. Bill was 90 years of age at the time of his passing December 18, 2012. I believe he is survived by his wife Mary and that personal condolences may be sent to their home at 2018 Daren Glen, Escondido CA 92026-1009 ... (760) 480-9308. Service arrangements are unknown.

Corrections and/or additional information is always appreciated. All updates received will be posted on our blog spot.
 
Thank you,
