David Roberts NEW Update of Delta’s OLDEST LIVING PILOTS list of 2022

DELTA'S OLDEST LIVING PILOTS 2022

Hello Everyone,

Each year I compile a list of Delta's Oldest Living Pilots, which includes ALL living pilots from ANY airline that is now shown on Delta's Family Tree schematic (attached below).

This is the FINAL list for 2022 and is attached below in both MS Excel and.pdf formats and is current as of TODAY,  March 30, 2023 -- only...!!!  My apologies for not getting this to you sooner.

This list is created from various sources that provide each pilot's date of birth.  The age of each person increases by one year on their day of birth using a spreadsheet formula --- so the March 30 list is correct for today only...!!!!  

There are two lists of the same information below in two formats each;  first: the NAMES list, is sorted alphabetically, and the second, the AGE List, is sorted by Date of Birth.  Each list includes, at the beginning, all the names of the Oldest Pilots of 2022 who died during 2022. 

Due to privacy concerns I will NOT PUBLISH the pilot's Date of Birth, only the month of birth and the pilot's age - as of the particular DATE of this report -- which is stated at the top of the report.  But to compile this report accurately I need each pilot's exact Date of Birth in the data base.

If you know Spouse names for those shown with question marks, please click Reply and send me that information.  If any pilot shown should pass away during 2023 they will be  highlighted in Yellow with their date of death shown in next year's report.
 
I arbitrarily determined several years ago that a good age for inclusion on this list was the calendar year the pilot reached the age of 86 and the 2022 list is now as complete as I can make it.   For the year 2022 any living pilot from any of the companies now on Delta's Family Tree with a date of birth of 1936 or earlier should be included.  The list is a work-in-progress so help me make it grow, in size and accuracy.

If you know of a pilot whose name is missing and should be included, please send me that pilot's FULL name, Spouse's name, the pilot's Date of Birth and Date of Hire and the pilot's ORIGINAL airline company --- or as much of this as you know.  If the spouse is deceased, please include that information with the spouse's name.

Let's celebrate Delta's Oldest Living Pilots again-and-again.  Send them a Birthday Card or an email at the beginning of their month of birth.  That's close enough to their birthday for us old folks.

As you can see this list has grown tremendously with all the original company pilots included.  For 2023 there are over 240 just Delta pilots who will be added to the list plus all the others now on Delta's Family Tree.  Look for a much longer list early in 2024.  But this is the list you want to be on before that Other List we see.

Please FORWARD this to all of your Delta friends as I only have a limited number of email addresses.  Let us insure that everyone ON this list receives a copy OF this list..!!!
Thank you for your help.

Stay safe out there.

Dave

 Mark,

 Sorry for the delay. CAE is a world-wide leader in business aviation training and is looking for Instructor Pilots. Pay and benefits are excellent and there are opportunities to fly if desired! If interested, apply at Careers at CAE | CAE jobs and follow up at @Talent Acquisition.

 Best regards,

Bert Colter
