~ IN MEMORY ~
PNA/WAL Capt. Peter ‘Pete’ Carruthers
October 9, 1917 ~ May 14, 2013
Born/raised in the San Francisco area, Pete was the 2nd of four children
born to Charles Peter and Edith Annabelle Vail Carruthers. From what I could
find, Pete received his early pilot training from the Boeing School of
Aeronautics located at Oakland Municipal Airport, circa 1935-1937. At some
point, Pete flew for Mid-Continent Airlines up until 1952 when
Mid-Continent merged with Braniff, and was based MSP. Captain Carruthers hired
on with Pacific Northern Airlines 05-01-1953 and retired with Western Airlines
at the mandatory age 60 in 1977. He was based SEA, then SFO at the time of his
retirement with Western.
Survived by his wife Elaine personal condolences may be sent to

Thank you,
