Work

Aviation problems turned into working products.

I’m Samuel Gonzalez, an FAA-certificated aircraft dispatcher with Part 121 experience. I independently created Sadiom’s web and iOS products to improve aircraft-dispatch study, weather awareness, and operational visibility.

Each project began with a practical aviation problem and was developed into a functioning product available on the web or through the App Store.

Professional context.

Role: Aircraft dispatcher and independent product developer
Experience: Part 121 aircraft dispatch experience in regional airline operations
Operational background: High-volume regional operations, flight following, fuel planning, irregular operations, and special qualification mountain airports
Focus: Aircraft-dispatch study, aviation weather, and operational awareness
Platforms: Web, iPhone, Apple Watch, Apple TV, and CarPlay

Selected products

Built, released, and maintained.

Three practical aviation products, each shaped by a real operational need.

Flight Dispatch Study

Dispatch knowledge built for active recall.

A focused study system for aircraft-dispatch candidates and working dispatchers. It uses guided sessions, cloze-style recall, smart repetition, progress tracking, and optional audio and haptic feedback to make study more structured and efficient.

Problem: Aircraft-dispatch material is broad, technical, and difficult to retain through passive reading alone.
What I built: A multi-platform study product that organizes dispatch knowledge into focused recall sessions and helps users revisit difficult material.
My work: Product concept, aircraft-dispatch content structure, study logic, interface design, platform development, analytics, testing, App Store preparation, and ongoing development.
Traction: Available on the App Store with ongoing downloads and active study usage.

Sadiom Flow

Operational information made easier to scan.

A live browser-based aviation operational-awareness product that presents flight activity, timing, traffic-management information, and changing operational conditions in a fast, readable workspace.

Problem: Operational information becomes harder to interpret when flights, timing, traffic-management information, and changing conditions are spread across multiple views.
What I built: A live web product designed to organize operational information and make developing conditions easier to recognize.
My work: Product concept, aviation logic, workflow design, interface design, data presentation, web development, testing, deployment, and ongoing maintenance.
Traction: A live web product used daily by real visitors.

CieloTracker

Weather changes without constant manual checking.

An iOS aviation-weather product that monitors METAR and TAF information and alerts users when selected airport conditions change.

Problem: Aviation weather can change between manual checks, especially when several airports must be monitored.
What I built: A weather-monitoring product that organizes airport observations and forecasts and provides configurable notifications for meaningful changes.
My work: Product concept, aviation-weather logic, interface design, notification behavior, widgets, platform development, testing, App Store preparation, and ongoing development.
Traction: A publicly released aviation-weather product available through the App Store.

Why I build

Built from dispatch experience.

Working in aircraft dispatch has shown me how much operational value can come from information that is organized clearly and surfaced at the right time. These projects began as practical attempts to improve study, weather awareness, and workflow visibility.
