Some little but very appreciated suggestions...

Hello, folks!

Lady Luck wanted to let me know what Flight Dispatchers do, and i was very impressed by my ignorance about that..

Actually, i'm getting as much informations as possible, 'cause this kind of jobe would be extremely interesting for me. A friend of mine talked with me about his job (FD at Rome/Fiumicino airport) and he suggested me to get started with FD career, BUT outside of Italy: they are treated like animals . He told me:"Go to the USA or everywhere FD is respected, and forget about working in Italy....Everywhere but Italy!".

So, i got started to take informations about some FD school and the president of the oldest school sent me a brochure (DVD included)
I got very impressed, and that man is going to be very kind with me, answering all my questions, immediately.

Now, i hope i don't disturb you if i ask some other info.

Realistically talking, is possible for an Italian getting the FAA certification(hopefully, but i'm very determined to achieve it) to start working in USA/Canada, or somewhere else looking for a FAA certificated FD?
My wish is not to get rich with this job: just not letting me get starved....

The more the suggestions coming from you, the happier i will be!
Thx in advance!
Ad maiora

Stefano
