FAA Approved Aircraft Dispatcher Certification Course
The position of Aircraft Dispatcher is one of the most respected, desirable, and prestigious positions within an airline company. The nature of the duties and responsibilities, combined with the requirement to hold a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Aircraft Dispatcher License (the equivalent of an Airline Transport Rating), makes the Aircraft Dispatcher position one of the most highly paid professions in the airline industry.
TransCon Aviation is an FAA Approved Training Organization that meets and exceeds the rigid U.S. Government requirements for qualification as an Approved Dispatcher Training Facility.
This program is also approved for Veterans (Call for Details).
Our instructional staff consists of Dispatchers, Pilots, and Maintenance Technicians with well over a century experience, who are qualified and current with FAR Part 121 Domestic and Flag Operations. All instructors are experienced in U.S. Code of Federal Aviation 91/119/121/135/125 Air Carrier Operations.
The Dispatcher's Role- An Aircraft Dispatcher is the individual whose responsibility is to exercise positive operational control over each flight under his/her authority as assigned by the company. Operational control is the exercise of authority over initiating, conducting, or terminating company flights. The Dispatcher shares the responsibility of operational control equally with the Pilot in Command of the flight. ALL Scheduled AIRLINES operating in the United States are required by the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR 14 Part 121) to employ enough Aircraft Dispatchers to exercise operational control over all company flights. Dispatchers are sometimes referred to as Flight Superintendents or Flight Operations Officers. The job can be accurately compared tothe "Mission Controller" position of the NASA Space Program.
The Dispatcher's Authority- The Dispatcher is authorized to conduct operational control by the FAA. This authorization is in the form of an FAA Airman Dispatcher Certificate. This certificate is issued after the candidate is trained to the competence level and has successfuly met the requirements to exercise such authority. The individual’s ability to serve in that capacity is demonstrated to the FAA by successfully passing written and practical examinations administered by the FAA or FAA Designated Examiners.
