04/17/2025 Discontinuation of POSCON Support Joe Burner

Dear Delta Virtual Airlines Community,

We regret to inform you that, effective immediately, Delta Virtual Airlines will no longer be supporting POSCON (Positive Control Network). After careful consideration, it has become clear that the limited data and persistent issues, particularly the challenge of ATC online controllers rarely being available, have hindered the effectiveness and reliability of POSCON for our operations.

We have always strived to provide the best virtual aviation experience for our pilots, and after evaluating the available options, we believe that focusing on other platforms better aligns with our goals and the needs of our virtual airline community.

We appreciate your understanding and continued support as we continue to support other online networks such as VATSIM and IVAO, which ensures a more consistent and reliable flying experience for all. We encourage you to reach out to our operations team if you have any questions or concerns regarding this change.

Thank you for your continued dedication to Delta Virtual Airlines. We remain committed to offering the highest quality virtual airline experience.

Best Regards,
Delta Virtual Airlines Senior Leadership Team

Effective Date: April 1, 2025

Delta Virtual Airlines is pleased to announce upcoming changes to our aircraft stage programs, aimed at enhancing pilot progression and providing a more streamlined experience across our fleet. These changes will take effect on April 1, 2025—and no, this is not an April Fools' joke!

Key Updates:
Boeing 757 & 767 Program Consolidation (Now Stage 3)
The Boeing 757 and 767 aircraft will now be part of a single Stage 3 program, recognizing their operational similarities and shared role in Delta’s history. Pilots previously rated in either aircraft will automatically have access to both.

Aircraft Program Stage Reassignments:
L-1011-100 TriStar is moving to Stage 3, ensuring alignment with other widebody aircraft of its era.
Airbus A330-300 is moving to Stage 3, reflecting its increased accessibility and importance in long-haul operations.
Boeing 777-200 is advancing to Stage 4, reflecting its complexity and operational role in our network.
Douglas DC-6 is moving to Stage 5, highlighting its status as a classic aircraft and recognizing the advanced skills required to operate this vintage airliner.

These changes will allow you to complete your rating stage progression if applicable, ensuring a smoother transition to the next level of your virtual airline career with Delta Virtual Airlines.

We encourage all members to review these updates and explore new aircraft opportunities as they become available. If you have any questions regarding these changes, please reach out to your Chief Pilot or Operations Team.

Blue skies and happy flying!

On behalf of the Senior Leadership Team at Delta Virtual Airlines, we announce the following leadership changes in our Operations department.

It is with a mix of gratitude and sadness that we announce the resignation of Chris Frasure as Vice President of Operations. Chris has served faithfully in this role for just over two years, demonstrating exceptional dedication, strategic vision, and a steadfast commitment to the success of Delta Virtual Airlines. His leadership has been instrumental in guiding the Operations department through numerous milestones. While we are saddened to see Chris step away, we are deeply grateful for his contributions to Delta Virtual Airlines, and we wish him nothing but the best in his future endeavors.

At the same time, we are pleased to announce the appointment of Ken Webber as the new Vice President of Operations. Ken has been an integral part of Delta Virtual Airlines for almost ten years. Joining Delta Virtual Airlines in Sept. 2015, Ken is bringing a wealth of experience and a deep passion for virtual aviation. Serving as Chief Pilot in the 747 program and as an Assistant Director of Operations he is known for his unwavering dedication and innovative problem-solving, Ken is exceptionally well-equipped to lead the Delta Virtual Airlines Operations department into an exciting new chapter.

As Vice President of Operations, Ken Webber will oversee all aspects of Delta Virtual Airlines’ operational functions. He will work closely with the Senior Leadership Team to ensure the continued excellence of our equipment programs and to meet the needs of our member pilots. Ken is committed to upholding the values and standards that Chris established while also bringing his unique perspective and energy to the role.

Please join us in expressing our sincere gratitude to Chris Frasure for his remarkable service and in welcoming Ken Webber as our new Vice President of Operations. We look forward to the continued growth and success of Delta Virtual Airlines under Ken’s leadership.
