___ 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).

PAA/DL pilot Paul Q. Cotton

~ IN MEMORY ~
PAA/DL retired pilot Paul Quinton Cotton
July 18, 1936 - July 16, 2013




Notification of the passing of retired pilot Paul Quinton Cotton, nearing age 77 at the time of his passing.  I believe Paul hired on with Pan American 03-14-1966.  The obituary notes that  “Mr. Cotton was a pilot for 38 years with Delta/Pan Am Airlines”.  I’m not sure of his retirement date with Delta however the April 2001 issue of DeltaDigest notes his 35th year anniversary and lists him as Second Officer based 030/ATL.
