CleartoFire. Assume you are wearing a blue suit as I am certain that ATSAs would not be permitted to do what you describe in civvy life! Well, they wouldn't in any unit where I've worked that's for sure.

Yes, there are lots of ATSA jobs "out there" but they are gradually disappearing. NATS wanted to get rid of a good number about 10 years ago but had to back-track and keep them. With the advent of electronic displays many ATSA tasks are now obsolete. I view that as a backward step...... but then I am a very old git with very old-fashioned values!
