Hello people,

The other day I was hanging around this airport and I realized that the airdrome traffic control service was not given by DFS but by a company called "The Tower Company" which is likely to be a subsidiary company of the DFS. I'm preparing the different tests for being an ATCO at DFS or NATS but I would like to know if anyone knows the working conditions and wages of these people because I'm thinking I could try here as well.

Looking to hearing from you.

Best regards.

The tower company is indeed a subsidiary of DFS which tries to compete with other "low cost" ATC provider companies. They do mainly small regional airport aerodrome control and are indeed looking for ATCOs (http://www.the-tower-company.de/ttc/internet_2009/deutsch/content/ausbildung_karriere/stellenangebote/fluglotsen_w_m/index.html).
