Am I Too Old to Become an Air Traffic Controller?

from The Side by Side ATC Podcast

In this episode, I talk about the question of AGE.The FAA has some strict guidelines for how old you have to be and how old you can be when you apply to become an air traffic controller. What do those guidelines mean when it comes to the Academy and to training at your first facility?Through my own experiences training at ZFW as a 34 year old and my experiences as an instructor at the Academy, I hope to help answer some questions about what it is like to train at different ages.The ultimate answer to the question though is this- You're not too old to try and to keep trying until it becomes impossible!Thank you all for listening! Thank you for your continued support and questions!If you have a question, or comment, email me at [email protected] .Website: attrawell.com/sidebysideatccom If you like the music, you can find more of it at gregorianrock.com . He is working on a new album that will be coming out! I can't wait!!
