MAC MCLAUGHLIN 1971 - 1986 AIRCRAFT CLEANER, TECHNICAL TRAINING INSTRUCTOR DEN Dave Owens phoned asking for information about a friend who worked in avionics with him - Irvin "Mac" McLaughlin. He thought he might have died as his phone was disconnected when he phoned him recently. I didn't have any info on Mac other than a 1974 article. Dave said he worked with Mac, Jim Throop, Fred Schubel and Don Cecil. He worked in SEA with Fred Schubel at AS a short time then worked for Boeing ten years before retiring. Now he does ReMAX realty in Frisco. I told him I would let him know if I found out anything about Mac. -Jake Lamkins (4/21/12) I spoke with Dave Owen tonight---and I think we might have located Irvin McLauglin-- looks like his home was sold on 1/2012 and i found an address in the voter file at Heather Gardens-- I've given to Dave for him to try to locate a phone number. and I gave him a contact for the Colorado History Museum which I think has some FAL stuff.... -Carolyn Boller (4/25/11) I have communicated with Carolyn Boller and she has apparently located "Mac" McLaughlin who seems to still live in Aurora. However, we have been unable to get his new phone number, so I will locate the address I have the next time I'm in Denver and hopefully, Mac will be there. -Dave Owens (4/29/12) I finally located and met my good friend and co-worker "Mac" McLaughlin last week. He was at the address Carolyn Boller had given me, so that was good. I was sorry to learn, however, that he had a stroke a few months ago and it has greatly impacted his vision. But we had a nice visit and I gave him a few airline articles that I thought he might be interested in. He thanked me for them and said he would read them with a magnifying glass. -Dave Owens (7/20/12) Hi Dave, You and I were in email contact in 2012 about Mac. Carolyn Boller just got back his reunion mailing marked deceased. Have you heard anything about Mac passing away. Thanks and hope you're well, Jake (7/19/16) I MCLAUGHLIN Emp# 10832, DENMT Address in Aurora, CO per the Nov 1984 Frontier Roster. Mac McLaughlin DENMT, no title shown per the Nov 1977 - Jan 1983 Frontier telephone directories. The emp # 10800s were assigned around Aug 1971 so I'll show that as his DOH until specific info is received. I MCLAUGHLIN Retained cleaner seniority of 9 mos 12 days per the Nov 1980 FL/IAM Seniority List. He is not shown on the May 1986 seniority list. I J MCLAUGHTON Emp# 10832 Address in Renton, WA per the Aug 1990 Frontier Roster. Need info on his birth date and date of death. -Jake Lamkins (7/19/16) Yes, I did hear about Mac's passing several months ago. I was very sad to hear that but not totally surprised because of his declining health since he had a stroke several years ago. I'm very thankful that I'm in pretty good health for a 75-year old guy and it's sad that there are fewer and fewer people I know at every Frontier reunion. Best regards, -Dave Owens (7/19/16) I just realized that the way I heard about Mac's passing was that I called his home about 6 or 8 months ago (or maybe longer) and his wife answered and told me. It's possible I may have a photo or two of him while he and I were in the Cayman Islands for Boeing around 25 years ago, but it would take some effort to find it. Sorry I can't be of more help! -Dave Owens (7/20/16) FLacebook - FL Club FLight West: Mac McLaughlin DEN technical training instructor Mac McLaughlin's memorial webpage has been posted: http://FAL-1.tripod.com/Mac_McLaughlin.html Still need an obituary for Mac and his dates of birth and death. Post anything you have. -Jake Lamkins (7/25/16)
