Transferring to TC from an airport
I was wondering whether there's any precedent for an APS/ADC rated controller at a NATS airport transferring to TC?
Wouldn't mind doing this in a couple of years, maybe, but not sure if it can be done.

In Talkdownman's case it was an advertised vacancy for a post he had already done and the HR people still wouldn't offer decent terms; they treated me badly too when I asked about staying on after I was 60 years old.

Nats contacted me out of the blue and invited me to re-join to cover staff shortage. The terms were severely reduced because of 'broken service', would you believe. Maybe they were just having a laugh! Whatever, Nats' loss!
So I 'walked' at 60 and became a FISO; as has been said, NATS' loss.

Just to add some perspective..
For every ATCO that gets an internal transfer to another unit in Nats, there are tens who request it but don't get it.
Getting a transfer in Nats is the exception, not the norm.
