    Dispatchers and Diabetes?

    No, no requirement to reveal anything like that. I've known dispatchers with multiple illnesses (cancer, kidney issues, paralysis) which prevent them from operating aircraft but work in ops control.

    Shift patterns and fatigue

    The shifts mentioned above make me glad I work straight up Mids Monday - Thursday. It's not too difficult to establish a week day sleep pattern since the shift times do not change. Tuesday mornings around 5am fatigue sets in a bit if I don't nap on Monday afternoon. No problem the rest of the...

    Jewish Teen Causes Bomb Scare out of LGA - CHQ Diverts

    I've never seen or heard of this ritual, does it make me ignorant? Some of you guys are pretty forgiving.

    ATC Job Posting-Not to exceed 13 months??

    There's a chance but most likely not due to the length of the actual application process (ATSAT, Interview, Medical, Psyc and Security check). 31 is the actual cutoff btw. From the time I took the ATSAT to the time I started class in OKC, exactly one year had passed. The shortest I've heard...

    When does it get unsafe?

    The regional count of 60-65 is fairly accurate. Depending on the regional, 30 of those releases are potentially IAD/CHO or IAD/MDT out and backs or something similar. On some days it may be difficult keeping up but on the standard day, those flights are really no brainers. If you feel...

    We were taking Sen John Kerry to Iowa back around 03-04 and the people who hired us for the charter gave us the wrong FBO information. Upon arrival, the plane went to the FBO which was listed in the charter package...wrong FBO! It didnt take long to realize that they were on the wrong ramp...

    Funny Dispatching Stories

    Charter out of Carbondale, IL late one evening, I called up the FBO ahead of time and asked them to fuel the Saab 340 to 3400# and also requested they wait for the crew to arrive before beginning fueling. They apparently didnt want to wait for the crew to arrive and began fueling the Saab to...
