'Cos I wanted to meet fit men!! Guess thats not too helpful for you, and I havent met any anyway......im not actually an ATCO but my father is and speaking at length to him during the years its mainly an interest in aviation that does it for many people. But I would suggest that you definately need passion for it, Air Traffic is not something you go into half heartedly. The course is demanding and you need to give it 100%. Why dont you ask for a visit to a control tower.....I did and decided it wasnt for me, altho I did find it extremly interesting and respect to people who do it as a career'
willa, I'm now a bit concerned that your dad thought we were all fit.

I think I'll add my 2p in here as well... I want to be an ATCO because (
) I know an ATCO and his love for the job and my love of planes put the idea in my head. Looked into it, and loved the idea more and more. Going for my 3rd try in September. It'll be my second time at Stage 2.
