What is a flight remote?

Flight Remotes are professionals who monitor, manage, or support flight operations from remote locations, rather than being physically present at an airport or in an aircraft. They typically use advanced technology and communication tools to coordinate with pilots, air traffic controllers, and ground crews to ensure flight safety and efficiency. These roles are increasingly important as the aviation industry adopts more remote operation capabilities, including for unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) and remote air traffic services. Flight Remotes may work in roles such as remote pilots, remote flight operations coordinators, or remote dispatchers.
