Where are you now??

Great idea - lets have some fun

How about drifting slightly and ask for contenders for 'oldest practicing ATCO' Mind you if you haven't perfected the art before reaching say 55 no amount of practice will help

58 course, me and my wife still controlling and what’s more important still loving it!!!. One more year, and I'll be the same age as my course number. HOWEVER, work regularly with a great chap who's 72
The gauntlet has been laid down

I agree with Spitoon. 16 course (Hi 107ergs) stopped shouting at aeroplanes a year ago. Let some of us retirees in.

How about SATCO Lasham @ 76? Valid APS, Plessey 424. Number 75 Radar Course, 1958.

Which is older, Talkdownman or his 424?
