MEL D'LOSS
PILOT
DEN


I was leafing through the Obituary page today and although I can't supply any specific date info, on many of the pilot's 
listed there is no info at all. My memory is far from perfect but
I thought I'd pass along what I remember about some of these guys. 
Mel D'Loss: Mel and his girlfriend were riding a Moped around a corner in Tahiti or someplace in the Pacific and hit a truck 
head-on which was hogging the road. Both were injured
badly although the girl eventually recovered. Mel was paralyzed and spent quite a few years that way.

first one is Bill Norris and the second photo is Mel Dloss.

Thanks for the two pix, Al.
Now, I can upgrade their webpages.
Do you know what year the pix were taken?
Were they both based in DEN?
Thanks,
Jake

I don't know the date of either picture.  They were
both taken in Denver, Mel DLoss was taken in the  crew
room.  Bill Norris was at a FAL Christmas party.  They
both flew out of Denver, Bill was Director of Flight
Operations for a number of  years.  Hope this helps.
