Membership / Join

Member-funded advocacy for the dispatch profession.

$30 a year, flat. ADF is the only US association that advocates exclusively for aircraft dispatchers — pressing the FAA on rulemaking, briefing Congress on flightdeck authority, and holding carriers to the standard the certificate demands. Joining is how that work gets funded, and how the profession keeps its own voice.
