___ 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).

Death notice for NWA Captain Bill Horne

William E. (Bill) Horne

February 13, 1940 ~ March 24, 2026

“To my friends formerly Northwest Orient now Delta, it is with deep sadness that I inform you of the passing of our friend Bill Horne. Bill started his pilot career with Northwest around the same time I started stewardess training in the 60's and we became fast friends, easy to do with that smiling face and fun personality. He had been struggling as of late with Alzheimer's and was living in a memory care facility close to his nieces, who lovingly cared for him. He passed on Monday morning with the girls with him and he requested no memorial or services. If you would like to send a card of condolence to his 'girls' as he referred to them, please p.m. me for the address. R.I.P. my friend, it was a great ride.💔
