Consider the following scenario:You are working the dispatch desk of a “Type A” operator, and you are a few hours into your shift. The previous dispatcher briefed you about a situation where a flight originated in Toronto, Ontario (YYZ) and has a destination of Brussels, Belgium (BRU), with an intermediate stop in St. John’s, Newfoundland (YYT).The flight was schedule to depart YYZ at 1100z, and it ended up departing YYZ approximately 90 minutes late due to late connecting passengers, and incurred another 45 minute delay due to poor weather delays (including de-icing and ATC delays). Upon landing in YYT at a time of 1600z, there is a maintenance issue encountered with the hydraulic system that necessitates a further delay of 3 to 4 hours, since a part has to be sourced and replaced on board. Added to this, the First Officer (FO) on the flight has complained that he had some food last night that is not agreeing with him, and he is not feeling 100%. According to the OFP, the projected flight time from YYT to BRU is 6 hours and 23 minutes.Please answer the following questions:1. Do these circumstances count as “unforeseen”, and could the crew extend their flight duty time? Why or why not (please be specific). What time could they extend to if this satisfies an “unforeseen” circumstance? Will the flight be able to make it to BRU? (2 marks)2. If the flight crew is able to extend their flight duty day, who would have to be notified of the flight crew duty day extension? Who would perform the notification process? (2 marks)3. What ramifications, other impacts, or limitations will this have on the crew’s next duty assignment? In other words, when can they operate their next flight, and with how much rest? How long can this next flight duty assignment be? (2 marks)4. What other considerations do you have to worry about as the flight dispatcher on duty with regards to this situation? (2 marks)When answering the above questions, please be sure to be specific and provide detailed examples and explanations in your answers.This assignment is individual, and must be completed by our next class.I will not accept any late submissions.All assignments shall be handed in via BlackBoard.

This activity helps you practice questioning by offering examples of the kinds of questions you might ask yourself before, during, and after reading.

Remember, you are just skimming in this step, not reading the entire passage.IntroductionHarry Potter (1997-2007)A seven-book fantasy series by J. K. (Joanne) Rowling (1965–), which has a credible claim to be the most successful children’s book series of all time. Formally conventional, but well plotted and richly imagined, it has been criticized in some quarters for derivative content and lacklustre prose, while also credited with turning millions of children on to the pleasures of reading—though the books’ enthusiastic readers and champions massively, vastly outnumber their handful of critics.ConclusionJ. K. Rowling has also written a number of short books associated with Harry’s world: Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2001), Quidditch through the Ages (2001), and The Tales of Beedle the Bard (2008), the sales for all of these benefiting charities that Rowling supports. After a long development period, 2012 saw the full public launch of ‘Pottermore’, an official website with unpublished material, downloadable e-books, etc. The first fully illustrated editions of the original series were announced in 2013 (with publication scheduled for 2015), with Jim Kay was selected to produce the first fully illustrated editions of the series, with book one appearing in 2015. Characters from Harry Potter’s world returned in 2016 in a spectacular London stage show, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child (co-written by Jack Thorne (in collaboration with Rowling)), set nineteen years after the end of the main series.Source: Oxford Companion to Children’s Literature (2015)STEP TWO, Stop and Think : Stop and answer these questions before reading the entire passage.1.
