I have been with DVA for a little over 3 years. Went inactive for a while due to recovery from a traffic accident, and recently have been able to participate again. I have had so much fun with this VA and would like to give some time back. I am pretty fluent in flight planning, operating the 777, and am willing to learn anything (dispatch, events planning, etc.) If some of you older guys could give me some ideas on how to get involved, let me know. Thanks.

A CRJ ACP positon is open. As staff steps down and the DVA population increases openings come about. If help is needed, including dispatch, there will be a sticky posted. But these are all "titled" positons. You can:
-Help a less expereinced member. Fly with them, give them a tutorial
-Make a "how to" video
-Write a manual and checklist for a plane that is lacking a good one
-Submit an article to the Delta Fly!
-Help people on the water cooler
-Show more support in group flights

I would suggest enrolling in the Flight Academy. This is a great place to get to know our fight instructors and learn some great things in the process.

Thank you guys for all the suggestions. I do have an idea for a how-to guide for new pilots. I think I will work on that. Again, thanks.
