Airline overview
Premium online charter operations
Drzewiecki Design Air Transport was established in 2007 as a premium charter virtual airline. It operated luxury passenger and cargo flights to destinations around the world, with an emphasis on professional planning, reliable execution and realistic online procedures.
Flights were conducted on the VATSIM network and were booked in advance through the period Eurobook system. From June 2009, DDAT also cooperated with Aztec Airways on joint “combo” flights.
The fleet consisted of a customized Boeing 737-900ER for combined premium-passenger and cargo operations, and a RealAir Turbine Duke for smaller charter missions.
DDAT fleet
The figures below reproduce the virtual-airline configurations used by DDAT. They are retained as project documentation rather than current aircraft reference data.
Beechcraft B60 Turbine Duke
SP-DDD · Sierra Papa Triple Delta
The DDAT aircraft was the RealAir Turbine Duke for FSX, representing a pressurized Beechcraft Duke converted to Pratt & Whitney PT6 turboprop engines. It joined the virtual fleet in October 2009 and served smaller passenger charters, complementing the Boeing’s long-range mixed passenger-and-cargo role.
