Dispatch Board

What Is the Dispatch Board?

The Dispatch Board is a real-time operations view that shows your entire trip pipeline for the next 14 days. It's designed to give dispatchers and managers a single-screen view of what's flying today, what's coming up, and which aircraft are available.

To access it: Professional → Dispatch.

Summary Cards

At the top of the board, four summary cards give you an instant status check:

Card	What It Shows
Today's Trips	Total trips departing today; "X in progress" if any are active
Upcoming (14d)	All trips in the 14-day window; "X unassigned" warning if any lack a pilot
Aircraft	Total pro aircraft in fleet; "X grounded" if any have open grounded squawks
Fleet Status	Per-aircraft status: ✓ ready, ⚠ open MEL items, or ✗ GROUNDED

Today's Flights

The Today section shows every trip departing today as a full card, with:

Route — departure and destination airport codes
Time — scheduled departure (and return time if set)
Tail number — aircraft identifier
Assigned pilot — name, or "Unassigned" in amber if nobody is assigned
Status badge — Draft, Open, Assigned, or In Progress

Click any card to open the full trip detail.

Upcoming Trips

Trips in the next 14 days are grouped by departure date. Each date section shows compact trip cards with route, time, tail, and pilot assignment status.

Fleet Status Panel

The fleet status card in the top-right shows every professional aircraft with an icon indicating its state:

Green check — aircraft is airworthy with no open MEL items
Amber triangle — aircraft has open MEL items but is not grounded
Red triangle + GROUNDED — aircraft has an open grounded squawk and should not fly

This status is pulled directly from maintenance records and MEL items — no manual updates required.
