RAAF ATC ????

[Tail Stand]

Can anyone out there offer me some info on the life of a RAAF Controller ?????

Been considering it for some time now and think I'd better get some opinions from out and about before hitting the first interview.

Any comments would be appreciated. :) :) :)

Have you made it as an RAAF ATCO? I've didn't think they had such a position.

Have I made it Adam?. .. .Spent almost 27 years as a RAAF ATCO.. .. .We only have around 230 at the moment. Peak strength in the past was close to 300. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="rolleyes.gif" />

Sorry guys what a muppet! I'm was thinking RAuxAF. .here in the UK. Its just I was going to be an ATCO in the RAF but resinged my commission due to "woman" problems - I've tried to get back in and they said sod off (bastards) so when I saw RAAF ATCO's my eyes lit up with out thinking - d'oh.. .Thanks anyway!
