Organisation of Operations departments
Hi all,
I am interested to know what the general organisation structure is like in an Operations environment, i.e. how the hierarchy system is. Also I would be interested in the difference between a Dispatch office off-site (where the preliminary preparations for flights are made) and the Dispatch office on-site (where the actual flights are handled). I hope I am making clear enough what I mean because the different terms seem to be mixed up in useage...
More concretely: if I were to change jobs from being a Dispatcher preparing the flight (flight plans, permits, fuel, handling) to becoming a Dispatcher coordinating the turnaround of a flight (airside), would I be staying at the same job level or would I be going down or up the ladder?

For a small (mostly) charter airline like TVS it is about the same (I mean the ladder thing).
Anyway, I think it would be interesting to compare how many people work at these positions relatively to the number of aircraft they are handling, in various companies
