As a dispatcher for the flight school at my university my roles include fueling aircraft, dispatching flights, and maintaining a safety standard to ensure that all flight operations go smoothly. I chose to work dispatch to see the other side of flight operations and expand my knowledge as a pilot. Organization, leadership, and ensuring safety are skills that I have acquired and helped me be successful at my job. On a busy day during a shift, me and a team work together to send between 20 and 30 flights out and ensure that all operations go as they should in a training environment.
