___ 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).

CARES AND CONCERNSThank you to retired Delta Captain Ralph Wolken for sending the sad news of the death of former 700th pilot and retired Delta Air Lines Captain Andrew P.  'Andy' Brown.  Andy had been treated repeatedly this year for kidney failure but I haven't received the cause of death yet.  He was a C-124 pilot in the 700th MAS at Dobbins AFB during that era and was mobilized during the USS Pueblo Crisis in 1968-69.  He was born January 25, 1938 and hired by Delta July 3, 1967.  Expressions of condolence may be sent to his wife Charlotte at 934 S. Greenbrier Road, Nocona, TX 76255-4008, phone 940-825-5454.  I will forward the obituary when I see it.

Friends,

As of 20:00 Sunday

While I was in Houston this past weekend I received some very sad news from Andy's wife, Charlotte. She informed me that Andy had passed away at approximately 02:40 AM on Friday, June 20. 

When I receive the pending details and/or information from the family I will forward them to you.  This happened rather quickly and is a shock to all of us.

Sincerely,
Ralph
