Just found out I didn't make it to stage 2 either, to be honest I was quietly confident so its come as quite a shock.
Only positives I can get out of it is I want to do aerodrome and actually see what Im controlling and the chances are through NATS I wouldn't have gotten that opportunity.
ASTAC or BaE now for me (with a pretty heavy career development loan).
Only viewing this as a minor setback, as they say if you want something enough...
