I was referring to the NATS games.

As for the feast ones, I bought one, but it didn't really relate to the stage 2 tests. It had some memory style features, possibly some response ones, but nothing you can't find online. I don't think it gave me an advantage for the tests though!

Ah ok. No worries if the games don't help much, I heard you can flirt your way to a rating anyway...

I got an e-mail saying I urgently had to contact NATS, turns out they had been trying to call me but they had my mobile number from 2 years ago which isn't my current, so had to e-mail first. Over the moon.

I didn't think there'd be more than once course starting haha, I'd actually prefer 7th December as it gives me a bit more time to sort my life out before I start!

Yeah I thought that when you said December, got to quit work and move and get myself ready for it! Maybe I misheard her, was kinda hard to understand her on the phone aha. Praying to god the medical doesn't bring up something I didn't know I had and they reject me

I missed a phone call by about a second and got a voicemail, rang up as soon as she left it but couldn't get through, ended up getting an email too asking me to ring them as I was repeatedly trying to ring them haha.

Thumbs up Congratulations boys!!

congratulations Eyesickle1 and Freddles! Super chuffed for both of you - I've just got home from work for the day to see your good news! alas, however, I've not received the same news and given I too was at the interview on the 11th, I believe my chances are now super slim! Determined to have another go in 24months though!

Congratulations Again!! :-)

congratulations manusa and mrwitter I am crossing everything for you! Manusa when do you start in 2016? If that's the case, that makes 3 courses? September 1st, December 7th and sometime in 2016. There must be a need for a fair few new ATCs in the coming years.
