I will get right to the point about the dangers of contracting Federal Aviation PART 121 aircraft dispatching: This information a dispatcher deals with changes greatly, and day to day. This task of maintaining correct information is a very difficult one. The amount of data that a dispatcher goes through on a normal shift, I will not be able to explain to you here. Please do not allow the mistake of contracting out this already difficult job to contractors who will somehow have to learn multiple airlines operating systems. This is EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, and down-right impossible to be done safely on a day to day basis. Please, do not take the safety record of the Aviation industry in the USA lightly- The run of great safety in the USA is largely contributed to the aircraft dispatcher. You would simply not believe the amount of mistakes that have to be caught and addressed by Aircraft Dispatchers. There is simple no possible way that a contract dispatcher is going to approach the levels of safety of a dispatcher that works with only ONE airline. It is not possible, and ignoring this fact makes the flying public less safe. The daily changes of an airline can not be overstated. Most aspects of dispatching are very sepcialized and take many years to master. Sometimes these dispatching rules can change by the HOUR, and it takes a huge effort between former pilots of the airlines, the director of operations, all of the dispatchers and business excecutives of the airline. To even entertain the notion that a conttacted employee could perform these duties is laughable at best. They would simply not have the resources to do the job. Worst of all the person left picking up the slack would be the pilots. This vast amount crosschecking data is not what a pilot needs to be worrying about while landing on a snow covered runway in Juneau AK, or Chicago ILL. I hope that you will remove this language from the NPRM.
