can you freakin' people go hit the heavy bag for a half an hour or so and take the gloves OFF before you come post here? All Pilotyip did was raise a topic... The point of this d@mn board is to illuminate and educate.
jeeeez.

I hope the FAA doesn't hear about that. I imagine they expect the PIC to have a little say in the dispatch decision. I suspect your Ops Specs might require a joint decision on the part of the dispatcher and the PIC.pilotyip said:The decision to go to or not to go to AOH that night was made by a licensed dispatcher in our flt following center.

Apparently, my outrage should be at the attitude of someone who seems to delight in the misfortune of a crew that DID elect to go to that airport at that time and were subsequently involved in an unfortunate incident.What pilotyip meant to say
The customer called my company's sales department, who in turned called my company's dispatchers. They took a look at the weather and decided it was in the company's best interest to NOT sell a flight to that particular airport at that particular time. The decision to NOT go to AOH that night was made by a licensed dispatcher in our flt following center. My company's flight crews were never involved in the decision to NOT go to AOH, and I'm sure glad they didn't put me on the spot. Isn't it funny that somebody else tried to go and screwed up?
