I am a Flight Dispatcher with a Canadian airline, and I also hold an FAA Flight Dispatch License. Can I be of any help? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Skyler1962 (talk • contribs) 00:51, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Changed from disambiguation to article
This article was formerly a disambiguation page. Now it is an article. The only other article listed on the former disamiguation page is linked at the top of the current article. -- backburner001 09:35, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

Re-directs

 * Emergency service dispatcher now re-directs here. None of the content in previous versions of this article had any new information that could be merged into this one.  However, it should be noted that the information that was present appeared to be written from a perspective that is different from the North American perspective the Dispatcher article is written to reflect.  The article might benefit from a more global perspective.  If any editor can do this, please either edit the article yourself or make suggestions here. -- backburner001 23:34, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Picture?
I'd just like to ask if its possible for anyone to find pictures on this, because since its a GA nom, there are supposed to be pictures when its feasible, but I don't know whether its feasible or not for this article. Homestarmy 20:28, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

GA failed
For these reasons :
 * Too many red links.
 * Please remove the US centered bias.
 * Is this, As a result of sitting for long periods and using such equipment, dispatchers can develop eyestrain and back problems. Many dispatchers must also work irregular hours to provide 24-hour service, which includes night, weekend, and holiday hours., US related or all over the world?
 * Could we have more information on the around the world point of vue.
 * Employment as a dispatcher does not usually require a level of education higher than a high school diploma., is that in the US only?
 * This,  In addition, it is expected that a number of current dispatchers will either transfer to other occupations or leave the labor force, which will result in an increase of openings., is not really encyclopedic.
 * Are the 266k people working as dispatcher only government employed?
 * Where are the sources of stress? This should be a bigger subsection.
 * Dispatcher's work obligations ... his breaks? All the unanswered questions.
 * Dispatchers codes? Are there any. Typical phrases used (should be blended into the text).
 * Equipement data missing.
 * Sueing of dispatchers? Are there any? What laws protect them?
 * Ref section is good and it is well-written, NPOV but not broad enough. Lincher 04:02, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
