___ 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 PCN Flight 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).

    Jim was a lot of person put in a small package !
    Like all of us , some good and some bad .
    In his case the good scales were tipped in his favor … and he might even agree with me on that !!
    We had a strange relationship,
    He had no reason to like me or let me into his life , but he did any way , and I loved him for it !!!
    We had some good times , made a run with me to Alaska one summer ,
    We spent 2 weeks trying to hatch him a big halibut!!
    I think every one on the boat caught 2o3 or more !! Except Jim :)). That’s when the crew started calling him No Butt Barstow . lol
    As a crew member he fit right in …
    Whitch was kinda strange , being a Captain first 30 years … I think he liked that some one else had to do the big worrying for once !
    And he could just be one of the guys :::))
    That’s one of my many Jim story’s .
    A good guy gone to soon ❤️ Sunny Boy :(
