Age limits
I am thinking of applying to become an ATCO. The NATS website does state that you must be under 30. Just how strict are they at enforcing this age limit? I have just turned 31 and have no previous air traffic or flying experience - at least not forward of the flight deck door!
Cheers!

No harm in trying is there. You may as well fill in the form and see what happens. Then let us all know how you get on. If you would be successful, you probably won't start for 2 years or so anyway, but we're all in the same boat there! I think there will probably be a few over 30's at the college these days!
I say there boy

I'll be 32 in March when I start on course 203. Applied in October 2002 age 29 3/4. AFAIK there is at least one 31 year old on course 202.
Guess I'm going to be the course grandad then

Foghorn -

No offence but please try not to, as it's getting very tiresome reading these type of posts!
Obviously everyone wants to know about their new course which is fine, but if you do start one please try to keep it to operationally essential info (not how many beers you are going to drink on your first night in Bournemouth
)
Cheers AFH
