John was one who helped me recently returned from the Tokyo base catch up on the new wrinkles of flying domestic. Much appreciated. Avie

John,
God bless you on your final flight west. Memories will be with me.

Flying the mountains of Montana and enjoying John's company that is how I remember John Hastings. I am sorry for your loss.

Memories..back to the "60's" in the days of the Electra. The memories are still there - Good memories of "the good old days"! My sympathy to your family. Fred Raiche (one of your best copilots)

John was always a pleasure to fly with. My condolences to the family.

Barbara and I are sad that we've lost another NWA family member.

Our deepest sympathy and our prayers go to John's wife and family.

Barbara, Johnnie and Family,
We were so sad to hear the news of "Captain Johns" passing. I have such fond memories of listening to his stories while visiting (ok, partying) with my parents.

We will also never forget the frequent fall trips to the tree farm and pumpkin patch as my children have grown. We were always made to feel so welcome and I usually could get the Captain to share a story or two!

Know we're thinking of you, and Barbara, I so appreciate the phone...
