That night, as I was getting ready for bed at 2330, I got another call from
the dispatcher saying the flight was on again, and that I was expected at
Shelby for a 0100 pickup. I needed to be at the Charlotte airport by about
1215 to make it over to Shelby on time. So off I went.


Was that an FAA certificated Dispatcher?

She was a company dispatcher. I have no idea what other credentials she held.
This was back around 1990 and the company went tango uniform not three weeks
later.

Pity. Not only was I out of a job, I had just completed the ground school on
the C-47. We had two of them and I never got to actually fly either. I did
pinch a manual, however.
