The

An Aircraft Dispatcher (ADX) is a licensed airman certificated by the
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), typically employed by airlines
or companies operating large transport-category aircraft, who has joint
responsibility with the captain for the safety and operational control
of flights. Dispatchers legally authorize flight departures and have
authority to delay or cancel flights if unsafe conditions exist. They
disseminate flight information to the company and are the source of
information provided to the traveling public.
The FAA Practical Exam for Aircraft Dispatcher is equivalent to the
Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) oral exam that an airline captain must
successfully complete. This Aircraft Dispatcher Oral Exam Guide
prepares you for the exam with an explanation of the certification
process, knowledge requirements in a question-and-answer format, and
reference materials for further study. It covers the aircraft dispatcher
Practical Test Standard subject areas such as route planning,
regulations, training and currency requirements, certification,
responsibilities and authority, aviation weather, manuals and documents,
as well as practical applications of all topics. In addition, special
emphasis is placed on common areas of focus for the exam: situational
questions, and a generic guide to the proper systems and procedures you
can apply to the specific aircraft used in your individual operations.
The Aircraft Dispatcher Oral Exam Guide provides current
dispatchers with a thorough review for their annual proficiency checks,
and is also beneficial to airmen and aspiring airline pilots seeking a
better understanding of dispatch flight operations. Author David C. Ison
has been involved in the aviation industry for over 32 years, as a
flight instructor, a college professor, and as an ATP for both regional
and major airlines flying domestic and international routes.
