DeltaAir Elite

I was wondering if anyone had any info on them? They are hiring and seem to be very interested in me so I was wondering if all the Aircraft they have are managed or charted? What are the schedules like? etc etc etc
Thanks!

I received the same email and had applied back in June. I'm thinking maybe they just wanted everyone with a resume on file to fill out their new application online so they will have it on file. However, I could be wrong though.

What happened to Nelson M. from Seagrave?

Business Jet Traveler has a feature article on Delta Air Elite/Seagrave this month.

Thanks for the heads up. No this is the first time I have applied to them as they had an ad out.

Delta AirElite and Segrave are one company now with 2 certificates. The managed aircraft are on the DAE certificate and the charter planes on the Segrave certificate. To get to the DAE certificate, you need to be employed by an aircraft owner who puts his/her plane on that certificate. The Segrave certificate pilots are employed by Delta/Segrave, as opposed to being employed by a private owner.

The Segrave certificate is working an 8/6 schedule, which is nice. However, pay is pretty low. $40K for midsize SIC, and $60K for midsize PIC to start. Bennies are good. Growth seems to be happening.

Which aircraft types are they hiring into? Any examples? Do you need to be typed and experienced in those aircraft?

Hey AZ aviator,

Your avtar became an obsolete antique at 0800 MDT this morning.

Whoa...no way!? Now I guess that's more of a reason to keep it as a collectors item!

As far as I know, they have been only hiring typed and current people. The exception to this are ex-DHL pilots who have the money to get a new type rating. I am unaware of any hiring where Delta Air Elite pays for a new type.

I have a friend who was recently hired at Delta Private Jets, formally Delta Air Elite, he had to pay for his type, apparently there is a pool of applicants waiting to pay for training to get a job there.

That's just great. Didn't take long for the Segrave mentality to seep in.

Incorrect information. The funds came from WIA.

 

[DAS at 10/250]

I applied a few months ago.

Got the update email a month or so ago.

Will be willing to use WIA for currency if WIA will cover 100%.

Won't drop a dime if it's my coin.

This B.S. in aviation has to stop somewhere. Might as well start with me!

[The Kman]

Each day become further and further from Comair. Very busy.

Seriously? Only $40K for a new SIC and gone 8 in a row?
