Dispatch/TCO Menzies Manchester

[RJW93]

Just started training as a dispatcher and I was wondering if any people could point in the right direction on what I should have on me whilst doing flights etc.. And if anyone has any tips, that'll be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks

I forgot how negative this forum is! I'll just try somewhere else!

It's more realistic, trust me

But, your average dispatcher will have...

• Folder (ideally one you can close to prevent paperwork getting wet during rainy periods)
• Pens, you can never have enough
• Calculator
• List of airport phone numbers, Menzies should be able to provide you with one
• Training notes etc
• Ear defenders - Don't think you won't need them because you will, I found out the hard way
• List of aircraft types with ICAO/IATA codes for Safedock if you aren't too familiar with aircraft types

Personally, I don't take anything out with me other than Ear Defenders and dispatch from my back pocket but each to their own.


Good luck
