I have been informed by his devoted and gracious wife Erika that a good friend and retired WAL/DAL pilot, Capt C.A. "Neil" Meyer, had passed away on June 26th. Like many of you, I flew with Neil a lot back during my B-727 F/O days. He was always a gentleman, and always enjoyable to fly with. A few of us had joined Neil and Erica at their home for dinner just over a week so before he passed.  Although the ravages of aging had taken some toll on his ability to get around, Neil was still active and a big factor in keeping the Camarillo pilot luncheon group together. His consistent and jovial presence at that monthly event always gave an extra measure of friendship to the atmosphere. I am glad we got to spend this fun  time with him and Erika so close to the end of his life.
Though I personally haven't seen anything on this news from any source as yet I'm sure more will be forthcoming.
Meantime, condolences, cards etc.  may be sent to Mrs. Erika Meyer,   1617 Ridgeway Dr.   Glendale, Ca.  91202-1218.  Thanks.                 
 
Regards and best wishes,
 
William Todd
WAL/DAL (ret)
