Due to real world commitments, A320 Zach Powell has stepped down as A320 ACP. Zach served on staff with us for a little over 2 years as an assistant to CP Jeremy Jurman. We wish Zach all the best as he travels away from the states on a 2 year church related mission trip. Thanks Zach for all of your help over the last 2 years!

Returning to staff is new A320 ACP Mark Springsteen. Mark has been with DVA since 2007 and has served in multiple roles on staff, including A330 Chief Pilot. Mark had to step away for real life issues and now has returned to continue his legacy. Mark has contributed much to DVA over the years so we welcome his return with open arms. As always, we had many qualified applicants for this position. Former staff and present staff are given priority for positions when available to return. Thank you all who applied.

Please join me in thanking Zach for his contributions here and welcome Mark back on to staff! biggrin
