Games/tools to help prepare for NATS Stage 2
I thought it might be useful to have a separate thread on here listing games/tools/websites where people can go to help hone their reactions, mental arithmetic, and other general ninja skills required to do well in the computer tests that make up Stage 2 of the NATS application process for trainee ATCOs.
Now I know there may be no directly relevant games out there, but there will be plenty that might be helpful, and trawling through 300 pages of the big thread can be arduous at the best of times.
So - any suggestions? Extra points go to people who suggest websites that aren't blocked by my company's firewall

a recent suggestion was some of the games on the Help for Heroes website -
Help for Heroes Social Network - HeroNet
I've not been able to check it out yet myself...blocked at work

Being a pre-stage 2 applicant I can't say very much! I can say that I was the one who suggested the heronet games. One of which required a player to complete three simultaneous games of tetris.
I have also heard and read about SkyTest for NATS ATCO Screening.
It is designed to help applicants pass Stages 1 and 2 of the NATS screening process - Could be useful. Seems expensive on their website though.
Lastly, it might be obvious, but I suppose the games on the NATS website might be useful?
Cheers,
Phil

It's really nice acctually (exept for the american spelling of colour ), and it's not super expensive to buy a months access either, and at least I find it to be quite fun too
