Does anyone know if DVA will ever drop the northwest flights and liveries due to the Northwest and Delta merger.

Delta has already been in the process of painting NWA planes to the Delta livery. Eventually the entire fleet will be delta and NWA is going to be completely integrated into delta.

Are you saying that eventually the entire DVA fleet will be delta?

Or flight database is already up to date here at DVA we have integrated all NWA flights into the system. I don't expect you to see the paints going away however. The liveries will still be an option for those who want to use them, much like the Delta "widget" livery is now (despite no DL aircraft sporting the widget in the real world) Livery choice is up to you "the flyer" no requirement for livery use exists here at DVA, hope this helps

So does that mean that you could fly a flight let's say for continental even if the flight is meant to be flown with delta.

Getting rid of Northwest will be sad, I have flown them a bunch of times in the real world and will miss there service.
