Fujii, sorry if I offended you by suggesting that Broome is a one 'man' tower, I was just going by what one of the assessors told me (he called it a one man tower) and I didn't think anyone on PPRuNe really gave a monkeys about non-sexist language.

I really don't think the tower controllers have it any easier than the enroute controllers, regardless of the length of their courses. Anyone that's flown out of somewhere like Archerfield will agree. If I was offered a choice, I would pick tower, because I feel that would suit me better. I don't have an issue, nor does my wife, with being posted to Broome. Incidentally, the assessor that said it was a one 'man' tower also said there were excellent financial incentives for controllers to work there, as well a sizeable queue.
