Just a reminder that we try to keep our aircraft as close to commercial aircraft flown by Delta or its acquisitions or codeshares as possible. You'll notice there is a Piper PA31 Navajo/Chieftain rating for the E120 program. This is for this specific aircraft. Pilots should not be flying the King Air or other aircraft or even a single engine Piper PA28 and calling it a PA31. If this happens, pilots should not expect to get their flights approved. If you have a PA31 and the rating, you're free to fly it. We're continuing to add more aircraft that were flown by airlines but mainly flown GA today. Thanks for your cooperation. If you do have a great new payware aircraft and want to fly it or get it in our hanger, open a help desk issue and we'll see what we can do. The more research you do to look up past commercial flights in the aircraft the easier it'll be to get it into our hangar and be able to log flights in it.

We've also broken out the MD8X series aircraft into some specific variants. Be sure to select the correct one when logging your flight.

FYI we're working to add the Shorts S330, the flying container which was used by some subsidiaries of Delta one time in the past. We're also exploring the Beech 99.

Also, you may have noticed that there are some new additions to the hanger: Cessna C172, BE58 Baron, King Air C90/350. These are Flight Academy specific aircraft. Pilots who take the FA courses will be granted these ratings for the course flights ONLY and then they'll be removed. These are for training and completing the FA courses only.

Thanks for your support. We aim to be as flexible as possible while keeping with the overall vision of DVA. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me or open a help desk issue.
