The Facebook group “Alaska Airlines Flight Crew to Heaven” posted Sunday about the death of Seattle-based pilot Eric McRae.

From Facebook:

It is with extreme sadness that I am sharing the loss of one of our own.

Seattle based Captain Eric McRae tragically passed away yesterday while on a layover. Though completely unexpected and untimely we have no reason to believe foul play was involved.

Eric’s ties to the Alaska Airlines family run deep. Eric was a proud father and shared two beautiful young children with his wife Chael, an Alaska Airlines Flight Attendant. His father is retired Alaska Captain Tom McRae.

Out of respect for Eric’s family’s need for peace and time to grieve, we will not be sharing any further details at this time. We will continue to support the family in every way we possibly can.

"Bill Gates the WEF & big pharma gave us the safe & effective COVID Vaccine… except they forgot to tell us about this list of side effects that they shared with the FDA in October of 2020 - YES BEFORE the mRNA modRNA vaccines were released. All these people do is lie so why does ANYBODY still trust them?" said attorney Tom Renz.
