The Aircraft Dispatcher Exam is equivalent to the Air Transport Pilot oral exam. Aircraft Dispatchers must execute and approve flight plans, route and altitude selection, and fuel load, all in compliance with FAA regulations. The format of questions and answers used in any Aircraft Dispatcher Guide or book is not sufficient to understand the extensive comprehensive material at hand and will not achieve the need to know in this profession. You cannot successfully answer questions without having full comprehension and knowledge. Unlike other books that only provide question and answer formats, this guide goes beyond the basic preparation which is necessary for passing the required exams. This book delivers to Aircraft Dispatchers a better understanding of the dispatcher's role. The information is up-to-date and brings you the latest and greatest available study materials, which are parts of an actual FAA oral exam. Route planning, regulations, and aviation weather are all part of the dispatcher's responsibilities and authorities and are covered in comprehensive detail.

After at least 5 weeks, studying day in and day out and passing your ADX written and practical test, you finally received your flight dispatcher license. Great achievement!I am not trying to ruin it for you but this is just the beginning of your journey. Next, you need to get yourself ready for your interviews and be so good that they cannot reject you. When I was going through the licensing process many years ago, I realized that there is no good reference in the market to tell future dispatchers what they need to learn - other than all of the technical topics they need to master in order to qualify and pass the dispatcher's license test (Unfortunately this is still the case - that is why I decided to write this book). Also, not everyone has access to flight dispatchers who are actually doing this job already with large airlines. So, chances for new dispatchers to visit the airline's facility and sit with their dispatchers are slim to none. What we learn in dispatch schools are the requirements set by FAA/ICAO for certification purposes. What you need to know to survive daily as a dispatcher in a medium to the large airline, is totally different than what you have learned so far while in school. This book is not a how-to book and it is not intended to teach you how to be a dispatcher. It does not teach you how to dispatch a flight. That is up to your airline to train you and ensure that you are a competent dispatcher. This book will, however, highlight the areas you need to focus on and will discuss why they are important. It attempts to illustrate the big picture for you as a dispatcher and explain how each and everything you do in your daily function, impact hundreds and thousands of customers. You can also use some of the topics explained in this book as an aid to your interview process. In most flight dispatch interviews, you will be given a scenario and will be asked to walk the interviewers through your decision-making process.Some of the topics in this book are followed by an Interview Tip. Take these tips seriously as they would greatly help you succeed in your next dispatch job interview.

Dispatching a flight not only represents organizing the departure of an aircraft but also involves an endless number of operational issues in charge of qualified personnel for that purpose. The figure of Aircraft Dispatcher was born with the need to guarantee the safety of both the aircraft and its occupants and other personnel on the ground. The ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) recognizes the figure of Flight Dispatcher as a pillar in air safety.As such, commercial air companies must have a certain number of flight dispatchers, depending on the size of their fleet. Like pilots, flight dispatchers must take a specific course on the aircraft in which they will operate their dispatch, limiting themselves only to being able to dispatch this class of aircraft in each operation. In simple words, a Dispatcher authorized for an Airbus A320 aircraft could not legally dispatch a Boeing B737 aircraft. The tasks of the Flight Dispatcher are several and include: meteorology analysis, NOTAMS analysis, analysis of the condition of the aircraft and MEL, analysis of cargo in holds, passengers, luggage, weight centering, aircraft swaying, determination of speeds for the takeoff segment and other operational calculations. Once the work is finished, the Flight Dispatcher gives the pilots a folder with all the information collected so that they can make the final decision to operate the aircraft in one way or another. The task of the Flight Dispatcher begins at the company's operations office, usually located at each airport where the company operates. Until the moment in which the pilot takes command of the operation and accepts the dispatch proposed by the Dispatcher, the Dispatcher is the authority of the operation, who decides if the aircraft is in a position to carry out the flight, based on all the aforementioned variables. This manual covers an introduction to the day-to-day job carried out by aircraft dispatchers, flight dispatchers or aircraft dispatchers (variants of the job title) and contemplates an analysis of the most important subjects for the position, such as: concepts about dispatch, weight and balancing, meteorology and planning. A manual with all the didactics that characterizes the entire collection of the most awarded aeronautical library in America.
