Hi all.

Thanks for your replies.

At the moment I work at a pretty busy Regional/International Airport but am looking for a change of emphasis. Although I still enjoy my job, working at a military airfield is more my kind of "thing" having been in the RAF (although not as a controller!)

The ideal scenario for me would be somewhere like Warton, but I believe it is very much "dead mans shoes" to get in there.

Before I put pen to paper, does having both civvy Tower and Approach Radar Tickets (Sorry ADI and APS!) but no Approach Procedural affect my options?

Gib sounds very nice, however just how low are the traffic levels now?

Why not try a regional airport, where you get to "mix it" properly? or is that too scary for you to contemplate...?
Been there, done that, got the T-shirt, book and DVD. Time to stretch the old horizons a bit!

Cheers!
