Multiple Aircraft Announcement for Sheffield School of Aeronautics’ FAA Aircraft Dispatcher Certification Course

By Eric Morris | Published: July 14, 2023

 

2 Aircraft Are Better Than 1!

During our 75th Anniversary year (1948-2023), Sheffield School of Aeronautics, the world’s oldest Aircraft Dispatcher training school, are proud to announce another innovative 1st. We will be integrating a 2nd aircraft (the B-737-800) into our FAA Aircraft Dispatcher course. To be clear, this is not a replacement of our FAA–approved B727-200 course.

As any Sheffield graduate knows, our original performance-restricted B-727 aircraft includes enough challenges and performance restrictions that have helped our graduates excel in airline initial training. Future students will be learning not only a modern aircraft, but also an additional aircraft type. Sheffield will be the FIRST FAA Part 65 course to include TWO large aircraft into ONE course. The purpose is to better emulate what new-hire dispatchers will experience during not only airline initial training, but also airline transition training. This will help airline trainers since this early exposure will allow the initial new-hire employee to already be familiar with multiple aircraft using an OPSPECS that includes a variety of multiple authorizations that differ amongst different aircraft, different MEL/CDL requirements, varying flight plan limitations, tail-swapping concepts, and various airport restrictions and authorizations, etc. Essentially, we will be emphasizing aircraft comparative analysis in our course.

This is yet another example of why airline employees and individuals who are serious about entering and REMAINING in this profession, select Sheffield School of Aeronautics for their training. 75 years has taught us a thing or two about how to prepare students to not only graduate, but also to enter and remain in this very vital safety-based profession.
