___ 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).

NWA Capt. Warren D. Branscomb
April 11, 1931 ~ March 22, 2013



Notification of the passing of NWA retired pilot Captain Warren Dean Branscomb. Obituary notes NWA but I think perhaps Captain Branscomb’s career started with North Central. Captain Branscomb was nearing his 82nd birthday at the time of his passing March 22, 2013.
