Military ATC

[Ghostie31]

Hi guys,
Just wondered if any military ATCer's use this forum? If so, would they mind me asking them a few questions?
Quite interested in the job.
Thanks,
Ghostie

I am still in the RAF ATC world - retiring at 55 in 2008 - so ask away!

AGEDMIL - the government has decreed you have to work until 65 so you can't retire!

I'm looking at joining the RAF as air traffic control, just wondeirng if there is anything I should be aware of/avoid in my attempt to sign up. I'm very determined to get in though, and visited Shawbury in september to get an idea of the workings etc. Any further information on it is appretiated. By the way, is it true that in civvy ATC where you train is where you work for the majority of your career? Ta
