Delta AirElite-CVG

[BN2A]

Anyone have any info on schedules, pay, upgrades, how to get an interview?

HQ's is in CVG. I believe they manage aircraft for people, and operate them on a 135 ticket.

Call the CVG FBO and ask for the CP of Delta Air Elite (formally Comair Charter Department).

It's almost a guarentee that this thread will turn into a NetJet complaint board somehow.

Was just looking at the website and didn't see it anywhere. Is there only Pilot base CVG? What's the schedule like? It says they are currently accepting resumes via email, any idea on how long the upgrade time is?


Thanks!

For the most part, they manage owner aircraft and owner supplied crews on their 135 certificate

Do you get Delta non-rev bennies?

Sure, you can ride as co-mat...bring your own box.

Companies that have their aircraft with DeltaElite do get pass benefits. I don't know what class or status but they get them.

I know an operator in TX and they are getting a ton of business from DLElite.

The way it works is DLE gets a call from a charter customer and then schedules one of their operators to fly the trip.

To work there, you'd have to get hired by an individual department that operates under the DLE network.TC

Well that explains everything.... Could you be a little less specific.

I think they have, or at least used to have, a Lear and a Challenger based at LEX. I thunk it was a 601 and a Lear 55, but I am unsure of the owners or operators.

Current mileage may vary...

I do not know about the crew, however, the owner gets flight benefits attached to a certain level.

Their drawback to some is that they make you provide like $500 million in insurance so they are covered. This is especially costly for a Lear 60 which is the kind of aircraft they like to have,.

Schedule: currently 10 days off/month.

Pay: 1st yr F/O $30k

Upgrades: Typically 18-24 months, although recently it has been less, 8-12

Interview: Luck of the draw; although just like anywhere else, knowing someone is helpful.

As a side note, there is no integration with Delta seniority, although crews DO receive the same pass benefits as any/all Delta employee.

All in all, for a 135 operator, a pretty decent place to be. Small family type atmosphere, with a good working relationship between pilots and management.
