Long Serving Controller Retires from Sydney
After 39 years as an Air Traffic Controller, Jeff Lockey is retiring from Airservices Australia on 8 Aug 08. Currently employed as an Aerodrome Controller in Sydney Tower, Jeff has worked in all three Sydney Towers as an ADC and Ground Controller. In his earlier years he also worked in various radar positions including Approach, Departures and Arrivals, and spent a short time as a Flow controller, all at Sydney. During his unblemished career he has ensured the safety of millions of passengers, aircrew and ground staff as they passed through Sydney.
Jeff works his last shift at Sydney on Thu 7 Aug from 1330 - 2000. If you are passing through Sydney during that time I'm sure he would appreciate your words of farewell.
