Hi

Does anybody have a video or a link to a video about the airline dispatch in a documentary way ??? just like videos for most airline such the one of Captain Alan ( Virgin Atlantic Boeing 747-400 ) ..

Thanks :)

Not yet but i've often thought that an insight to an Airline Ops department would make a wonderful documentary.
It would be a brave company to go down this road and let the camera's in as most airlines are very secretive about how they do things.

However, should a Television company be interested in such a venture i'm sure there are a number of people reading pprune who could and would offer their services on a consultancy basis to get such a project off the ground.

I think such a documentary would have to be 'R' rated for profanity.. :E

"Who the :mad: does that underworked & overpaid :mad: think he is calling sick 30 :mad:ing mins prior to sign on!"

Just a small sample of what can regularly be heard.. You could solve global hunger by putting a swear jar in every ops room in the world :}
