<<Any reasons why nats wouldn't be too keen on ATCO's over 60. If currentl news is to be believed, the government really is wanting to raise the retirement age to 70 for men and 65 for women, am I right?>>
Very few people would be capable of working a busy ATC sector well into their 60s. What has happened in the past is controllers have come off operational work and moved into office jobs. It's fairly easy at big units, but not at smaller ones.
