___ 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).

Obituary................................ 
The heavens gain and the earth loses with the passing of Scott Robert Jones on January 17, 2017. He was a husband, father, grandfather and pilot. He was born in 1940 in Minneapolis and was raised in Decatur, Georgia.
He joined the Civil Air Patrol at an early age and never looked back. Flying was in his blood. After a brief stent in the Army flying government contracts in C130s with Flying Tigers/Zantop he was hired by Delta Airlines in 1966. He retired 30 years later.
   
Scott was known as the “coolest pilot in the cockpit.” He mentored many young people as he had such a youthful charisma – be young, be foolish, be happy. He is remembered for his lighthearted, joyful zest for life and for his always helping and joking nature.
   
He never met a stranger. We will miss the laughter and smile that he always put on our faces.
Scott is survived by his wife of almost 46 years, Diane; three daughters, two sons-in-law, four grandchildren and lots of friends.
He was a lover of people and never missed an opportunity to help a fellow human being. What a special man! He is guaranteed to rest in peace; but watch out angels, because here comes Scott!
A private family service was held. Online condolences may be made at www.marksfuneralservice.com
