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?

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.

He will put you straight. Apparently some folk are just naturals at it like all things in life. |

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....
