Project Description

The Delta Air Lines Flight Operations Center in Salt Lake City, Utah, is a cutting-edge pilot training facility encompassing 49,913 square feet. The two-story steel-frame structure features a sleek exterior with metal paneling and dynamic curtainwall glazing. Inside, the building houses four high-ceiling simulator bays equipped with full-motion simulators, four procedure trainers and essential support infrastructure.

Additional features include seven classrooms, 10 briefing rooms, office spaces, a conference room and an on-site café. Sustainability and safety were key priorities in the design, highlighted by the use of dynamic glass and heated concrete surfaces.

The facility greatly expands Delta’s training capabilities, offering more convenient access for pilots based west of the Mississippi River, while also contributing to the local economy through job creation and community support.
