D. Kircher“I wanted to tell you I got the job offer from Expressjet, and start next month! I think a couple others from class were hired as well.

Flight Dispatchers and Their Part in the Air Medical Process
AirMed leads the world in global air ambulance and medical solutions that are geared toward protecting your greatest asset, your health. AirMed combines every aspect of planning and logistics for the long distance and domestic transport of medical goods. Besides flight planning and ensuring that the weather is cooperating, AirMed aircraft dispatchers spend a lot of their time dealing with foreign handlers and customs agents that are located across the U.S., as well as internationally.
In the modern aviation industry, there is a list of items that require you to multitask, keeping in charge of them so that things continue to run smoothly. The AirMed flight dispatcher team is the back bone for keeping a smooth operation flowing properly.
AirMed hires only individuals who pass their FAA Flight Dispatcher’s course and have been issued a FAA dispatcher license. Sheffield is an FAA approved flight dispatcher school that offers courses on flight planning, aircraft performance, and plenty of courses that educate on reading weather forecasts and condition reports, all of which are required to become and AirMed flight dispatcher.
AirMed requires all of their flight dispatchers to be organized and have the ability to use their experience to plan a flight a few steps ahead. It is a good sign that a flight dispatcher is advancing when their questions are more advanced, not the number, but the complexity of the questions.
At the end of the day, all flights are different and unpredictable, especially for AirMed flight dispatchers. It is important for them to focus on the trip and to keep in mind that someone is relying on them to get them home after they have been injured.
