___ 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).

~ IN MEMORY ~
NEA/DL Capt. Charles 'Chuck' B. Smith

News with the passing of retired NEA/DL pilot Captain Charles Buford Smith has been received.  Captain Smith was 83 years of age at the time of his passing.  Captain Smith joined Northeast Airlines 08-12-1957 and retired with Delta Air Lines in January 1992.  He was based DFW for much of his career, then PDX at the time of his retirement.  Captain Smith is survived by his wife (F/A) Mary Shutt Smith.  As was Captain Smith's wishes, there were no services.   Online condolences may be shared at https://www.localcremation.com/obituaries-details.php?ID=555
I believe the Smiths had resided at 1718 Pilots Loop, Forestburg TX 76239-3284 .... PO BOX 384, FORESTBURG  TX 76239-0384.... (940) 964-2420  ..  business phone c/o Marshall Smith  (940) 964-2500  ..  but I was not really able to verify the family's contact. 
Should we receive more information we will be sure to post an update on our blogspot.
Thank you,
