___ 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).

*NWA Capt. Rupert Erling Thompson

August 18, 1940 ~ June 16, 2023

 

As noted in the September issue of the AIR LINE PILOT magazine…..the passing of Northwest Airlines pilot Captain Rupert E. Thompson, age 83.  Born/raised in Minnesota, Rupert Erling Thompson joined Northwest Airlines 04-19-1965.  He had most recently resided in Florida : 1400 Shadwell Cir., Lake Mary, FL 32746

To the best of my knowledge Rupert is survived by his wife Julia Ann Thompson, née Pitney.  They married in April of 1966 in Minnesota.  To date I’ve not been able to find an obituary online.  If anyone has more information, we would be happy to hear from you.

Thank you,

~ Carol for the PCN
