hey all, just had a quick flick through this thread and felt the need to add a moan of my own, im a dispatcher at lpl (points at name) and i find that the 25 min turn around puts pressure on despatchers to skip secruity messures, aircraft departing with out the AAA forms filled in completey etc etc, yet if a dispatcher does the paper work correctly and the flight goes out late they then have to try and explain to the ops control that your job takes 25 mins just to wade thru the paperwork, that ontop of the cabin crew havin a natter between flights and departures takin 10 mins to get the pax on the ramp after reqested it does seem to get a bit heavy. i understand the need to get the a/c off asap when its low fares but manegement and the airlines need to think of ways to improve saftey and abilty of staff. think i need to move to a bigger airfield and do some hour turnarounds, can grab a brew then!!
