Tusitala, don't take offence my old mate, I know you happen to be a bloody good controller, and NATS loss is the gain of certain other air traffic providers.

NATS policy on not taking tower only controllers is a bit dumb, I mean all the robots like me sitting there saying "Cleared to Land..", don't need a radar ticket for that do you?! And the chances of me actually getting out of my ivory tower are slim and none due to

a/. the ineptitude of NATS recruitment to actually get the right kind of people into the right kind of places.

b/. the bloody college chopping GOOD students days before the end of their course just to adhere to aome stupid, arcane rule.

Tusitala, you truly are going to a better place.
