Hi Guys,
I know this question has been asked before, but it never seems to quite answer my question.
I am going through the selection process. Passed the first stage, and have booked interview... so fingers crossed that is ok. I then have medical... I think I am ok... two arms two legs... and brain sometimes works.
I am thinking about what happens if I am successful, what stream would be the best to push for.
To date I understand that Aerodrome Controllers can do Area, but Area can not do Aerodrome... Have I got this right?
Also how difficult would it be to swap... while I am young and energetic, moving around the country from airfield to airfield is not much of a problem... but as I grow older and want to turn grumpy and sit in one place Area would suit better... (even better Area with a Broadband link to the office from home... you can shop on-line in your underwear, why not control planes too!)
Anyway, back to the point and joking aside, any ideas on the best "stream" to head for maximum flexibility?
Thanks...
