I don't often disagree with you..but I have to just once.

A lot has been said on various threads recently about the poor checkout rate that NATS has at various units. That checkout rate is with the age limit being set as it is now.


I also still don't understand the difference between a new "young" atco or a new "old" atco. The environment is new to both and they have to adapt accordingly. Why would a 20 year old who is fresh out of school with no experience of anything else be more adaptable than someone who has a bit of life experience.

If we are saying that someone over 40 "can't hack it" than there are a lot of unsafe controllers out there.

PS I am 31
