Hey just wondering why isnt there an A330 program since it is part of the fleet like every other plane.

i believe there is but it might just be merged with another program (ex. 777 program) because we didn't have them before we took over northwest

We don't have enough management time available yet to get the program started.

Cheers!

i already know two guys who have been at DVA for ages but havent been recognized. One of them has the highest use of the Delta Callsign on Vatsim and probably knows more about the plane then anybody. He's still not a senior captain.

As stated with the A320 thread, it wasn't until not too long ago that DL announced the merger with NW. Before that, DVA had all these a/c as additional ratings; as Tanner said, they are merged in with a larger program. you would have to imagine that with us being THE largest VA out there, staff is usually very busy. It will take time but eventually, some of the NW a/c will get it's own program. Take that on the flip side, there are lots of DL a/c that does not have it's own program, i.e. 764, so some may never get its own.
