I've been offered a job as an Air Traffic Controller, starting in May 2010. Are there any ATCO's on here and if so, how did you find the training?

good money daley but high stress, and the skies are getting more crowded! Still, once they sort out the software at Swanwick you should be ok

I'm a private pilot, Daley and I think you're a professional bunch of folks. Always a pleasure talking to controllers, the last bastion of good manners, imo.

My mate Leo is the trainer at Southampton airport.
He will put you straight.
Apparently some folk are just naturals at it like all things in life.

Noted Ken, but it was a polite joke.

I guess it's a really easy job if you're hopeless at Pong.

Also a PPL holder myself, and agree with the Reichsfuhrer's comments above...almost without exception, ATCOs are a pleasure to speak to. Though I do wonder how they have the patience to deal with some of the buffoons that you hear talking over the airwaves....
