La Quinta, CA - July 31, 2011 - Desert Jet, an aircraft management and jet charter provider based in Southern California, has announced that Melody Tharp has earned the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) Aircraft Dispatcher License after an intensive year of training and study.
The training and certification course was provided by Universal Weather and Aviation, Inc. at their training facility in Houston, Texas. Tharp was awarded The Universal Weather and Aviation, Inc. FAA Dispatcher License Training and Certification Course Scholarship, presented by Women in Corporate Aviation at the 2010 National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) conference in Atlanta, Georgia. Recipients of this award were chosen by a panel of aviation professionals who reviewed each applicant’s experience level as well as their determination and motivation to grow in their positions.
To become an FAA-licensed Aircraft Dispatcher, applicants must demonstrate extensive knowledge of meteorology, aircraft performance and aviation regulations, equal to the knowledge required to obtain an Airline Transport Pilot license.
"We are all extremely proud of the work and effort Melody has put into her growth as an Aircraft Dispatcher", said Denise Wilson, Director of Operations for Desert Jet. "Her ambition to be the best as what she does makes her an invaluable part of our charter and dispatch team here at Desert Jet."
