___ 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).

    I just found out that Taft passed away and I wanted to extend my condolences to the Weaver family. I flew with Taft on the 727 out of LAX and he was always a joy to fly with. I especially loved his "bird deflection hat," that black leather hat bejeweled with colored beads that he swore would fend off any birdstrikes. It definitley worked whenever I flew with him! It had been ages since we last chatted and I regret not keeping in better touch with him. He was a great pilot and a better man. May he rest in peace. Regards, Capt. Kevin M. Mac Donnell
