What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
The inquiry into the emergency fuel declaration by tcf 6014 determined that the flight crew followed the carrier's minimum fuel procedures and that the zfw artcc's sequencing of the aircraft after the flight crew's minimum fuel declaration was a significant contributing factor to tcf 6014'S subsequent fuel emergency declaration. The zfw ARTCC qa indicated they were conducting a full service inquiry into the vectoring tcf 6014 received in this incident. The captain of tcf 6014 was counseled by the carrier regarding the need to maintain enhanced situational awareness of aircraft fuel status during ARTCC initiated re-routes. The carrier inquiry determined that the flight dispatcher provided inadequate and non-timely flight following support to the incident flight crew in that the dispatcher did not assess the ARTCC re-route adequately for its impact nor did the dispatcher develop and communicate an adequate contingency plan for the re-route in a timely fashion. The dispatcher was removed from dispatch duties and scheduled to receive additional training and a competency check. As a result of this incident, the carrier also developed a plan to provide enhanced dispatch resource management training which will be incorporated in the carrier's initial and recurrent dispatch training modules.
As the FAA filed it
THE INQUIRY INTO THE EMERGENCY FUEL DECLARATION BY TCF 6014 DETERMINED THAT THE FLIGHT CREW FOLLOWED THE CARRIER'S MINIMUM FUEL PROCEDURES AND THAT THE ZFW ARTCC'S SEQUENCING OF THE AIRCRAFT AFTER THE FLIGHT CREW'S MINIMUM FUEL DECLARATION WAS A SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTING FACTOR TO TCF 6014'S SUBSEQUENT FUEL EMERGENCY DECLARATION. THE ZFW ARTCC QA INDICATED THEY WERE CONDUCTING A FULL SERVICE INQUIRY INTO THE VECTORING TCF 6014 RECEIVED IN THIS INCIDENT. THE CAPTAIN OF TCF 6014 WAS COUNSELED BY THE CARRIER REGARDING THE NEED TO MAINTAIN ENHANCED SITUATIONAL AWARENESS OF AIRCRAFT FUEL STATUS DURING ARTCC INITIATED RE-ROUTES. THE CARRIER INQUIRY DETERMINED THAT THE FLIGHT DISPATCHER PROVIDED INADEQUATE AND NON-TIMELY FLIGHT FOLLOWING SUPPORT TO THE INCIDENT FLIGHT CREW IN THAT THE DISPATCHER DID NOT ASSESS THE ARTCC RE-ROUTE ADEQUATELY FOR ITS IMPACT NOR DID THE DISPATCHER DEVELOP AND COMMUNICATE AN ADEQUATE CONTINGENCY PLAN FOR THE RE-ROUTE IN A TIMELY FASHION. THE DISPATCHER WAS REMOVED FROM DISPATCH DUTIES AND SCHEDULED TO RECEIVE ADDITIONAL TRAINING AND A COMPETENCY CHECK. AS A RESULT OF THIS INCIDENT, THE CARRIER ALSO DEVELOPED A PLAN TO PROVIDE ENHANCED DISPATCH RESOURCE MANAGEMENT TRAINING WHICH WILL BE INCORPORATED IN THE CARRIER'S INITIAL AND RECURRENT DISPATCH TRAINING MODULES.
