Thx for the info aldegar, seems like you have alot of changes going on over there, wish you the best.

@Spitoon, I agree with you that an experienced controller will have a greater chance of working outside of sweden then someone with only a student licence. Also that knowing the countries language is important. I know of some countries for example Germany that accepts English only for upperair controllers (i think Holland does the same), but probably if you expect to work there for more than a few years you better learn the official language of the country (which i have no problem with).

Regarding conversion training i have no problem with that. Any idea how long these type of training usually takes?
