FC: limited postings
, incompatible with civvie/mil ATC, but unlike ATC there's a small chance of some AWACS time.

Do the aussies/americans still snap up FC's? There's also 1ACC as well as AWACS if you like that sort of thing.
To be honest you should take a trip down to Boulmer to get a small taste of FC, and another trip somewhere to see how ATC works.
