HOMER DAHL
1959 - 1986
PILOT
DEN OMA BIL

 
Date of hire was April 1959 as pilot. 
I flew out of DEN first then was sent to OMA, and after two years there got a BIL bid where we planned to stay. 
Unfortunately, in 1967 FAL transferred all
pilots to DEN where I flew until 1986 when the end came and I retired. 
We seem to have taken root here in Aurora, but would sure like to be back home in BIL. 
Thank you for the invitation and wish we could be there. Hopefully next year we can � will look forward to it.
(Editors note: I talked to Homer by phone when I was trying to verify his email address. 
He is a contact person in DEN for the pilots. 
Every evening he checks his email for news from other pilots � who is sick, deaths in the ranks, etc. 
They have a phone tree - if there is news he calls 10 names and each of
them calls 10 until they have touched base with everyone they have on their list. 
Neat idea we might try for the BIL agents, etc.)

Homer left a message last night then phoned today.
We chatted awhile - he's interesting.
Said he once flew for Wyoming Fish & Game for 3 years before FL.
He told of handling grizzlies and wild turkeys.
He likes animals better than people.
He especially loves horses, he said.
He is not kin to Bonnie Dahl but knows her.

I certainly enjoy your Frontier News.
It keeps me somewhat up to date with information I don't find anywhere else.
Thank you for all your efforts.

Ol' Homer Gone West.
Hard to believe a smile like that wouldn't last forever.
I guess it might in our mind's eye.
