Mil ATC in Gib

Gisajob,

I imagine there's a whole host of reasons why the military have no wish to commit ATC staff to Gibraltar, but in the unlikely event that the powers that be did decide to return when the current contract ends, I imagine the establishment would be rather less than what you quoted, given the light traffic levels.

The biggest problem in posting someone to such a quiet unit is skill fade and even you would not venture to suggest it's as demanding as Gutersloh was in the late 1980's. It might suit some elderly types like myself in the twilight of their career, but would probably have less appeal to the more youthful individuals you really need to attract . Still your job offer is tempting ........ but hang on............................. doesn't it means having to work for Serco!?!

Perhaps remaining in uniform isn't all that bad after all.
