Thanks for all the info, had problems with my username/profile so been unable to reply for some time. E-mail contact is now on my profile.
I definatley aim to try the APC route at some time, the question is whether to leave the Service early and forsake some of the pension or wait for another 7 years until my time is up.
X-Border, give me a call and let me know how your interview goes - good luck!
Any other mil ATCOs out there with any views or plans on the future?
