THE DISPATCHER

Beneath the roar of the engines
Beyond the altitudes and clouds
Before the captain sets his course
A silent force, he sets his command
The ground he walks. But the sky he lifts
In the shadows of the aircraft, with his maps and charts
Keen eyed, he whispers through the radio waves
A hand unseen, a life he saves
He seeks no glory, his aim is safety
For all persons on board are vital
He weighs the fuel, he sets the stage
And calculates the sky's own rage
His voice a guiding Ray
"Go", "stay" ,"divert" or "climb"
For though the pilots take the flight
It's he who frames the path so right
He sets the route, his mind a compass
So calculated, so precise
A toast we lift to him behind the scene
Who stays on ground, but is equally in the sky
….steadfast the dispatcher.

Aspiring Astronaut Since as far back as I can remember, I have always aspired to become the world’s youngest astronaut. However, my parents dismissed it as a mere child’s fantasy. All that changed when I wrote out the landing procedure of an airplane on our home’s whiteboard. This impressed my parents, and they began testing my knowledge and abilities in aeronautical engineering, asking me questions about space, airplanes, and more. On one occasion, during a trip to India on Air Arabia airlines, I had the opportunity to talk to a pilot. In the cockpit, the pilot questioned me about the functionality of the Airbus and even allowed me to sit in the pilot’s chair. My parents were surprised that I was more interested in becoming a pilot than an astronaut, but I explained that one of the requirements to ...
