If you knew how busy a G4 dx using un-integrated systems is and the number of flights they are responsible for you might understand how a flight could be planed for on time and then when the delay happens the lack of time to go back and adjust for a time specific TFR. It's a two way street and a reason the PIC is provided NOTAMS as part of the release. Realisticly the dx options were to pre-emptively add hold fuel for an on time arrival or use joint operational control and let the PIC call to discuss the issue. But in this case the PIC never read the NOTAMS.



dispatchers and make thaircrew responsible for all aspects of every flight. At least the flight crew would know where they stood in the form of back office admin.[/QUOTE]
