Bluntly math doesn't matter. The only math you need to know is that an airplane moving at 60 miles per hour moves one miles per minute…an airplane at 120 miles per hour moves 2 miles in a minute and so on. I can divide by 60, therefore my math is good enough… You have 3 options.

You have to either a) get hired "off the street" b) do ATC in the military or c) go to a CTI (controller training initiative) school.

Getting hired off the street you take the test called the AT-SAT. Its pretty much can you do basic math, read dials and how do you function playing what amounts to a video game. Passing the interview and the AT-SAT via the off the street route doesn't get you anywhere. They then take the succeful people and pick a number at random, if your social security number ends in that number you're in, if not, tough luck. The OTS route is a tough road to hoe, 75% of those that go that way and pass the interview fail out and get fired at some point. With the application process that means less that 2.5% of potential controllers actually make it.

I'd suggest either A) getting real world training in the military or B) going to a CTI school. The military, well thats obvious, talk to a recruiter. If you get the MOS you apply for, you'll be set for ATC once you get out. There are 13 CTI schools. They are all normal colleges and universities that the FAA has said, "We like what you do in training, keep it up and we'll snap up your grads." Major in ATC at one and the FAA will hire you. In your position if you went the CTI route, get a simple associates degree. Take you one easy year and you're set. Jobs are set to seriously open up, the FAA is way behind the hiring curve and yes it is because of the PATCO firings in the 80's am ong other things. Do the OTS route, do the military, do CTI, doesn't matter (though I'd suggest the latter two). Just know the military and CTI ways will give you a serious advantage to getting through all the hurdles you'll face. I'm going through CTI aftter getting over 350 hours in flight time in my log book and a degree. I can't imagine getting thrown to the wolves doing the off the street thing. Even with what I have it still isn't easy. Just whatever option make sure you are out of the service / graduate / get through the AT-SAT and interview before you are 31. By that time you're too old to start.

I'm not slighting the OTS people, kudos to anyone who can hack OK City in 7 weeks. My dad was Navy ATC and took a 16 week course and is stunned they compress it to 7 nowadays in the civilian world. Me I'm amazed they pressed military controllers in a mere 16 weeks. I have more formal training in math than the rest of my class having plowed through Trig and Calc for my first degree. Doesn't make you a better controller. That said the discipline to bust it and get a MS will seriously help you.

Awesome? Yes. You play what amounts to a video game all day. The downside is there are lives on the line if you mess up. One big screw up makes a serial killer seem tame in comparison to your one mistake.

The challenge is can you keep from messing your pants while blips shoot by at unreal speeds, no pause button, no time outs, just you and your brain in real time? Doesn't take a smart person. Just the right kind of person.
Best of luck to you.

Does it depend on your Membership Type? I am Support Staff so I would assume that Circulation/Access would be there? What about Training/Staff Development? Foundation?

Seems kinda confusing…like if u want to change your TAGS on something to a new TAG..u gotta go into each URL bookmark and redo it. I’d like to say if that is the case..then a folder in your local bookmarks seems safer and cleaner. Although, this just as a backup solution in case your computer went down is a good backup a the very least.

Vacation to Colmar or often called ‘Little Venice’ in France, you can see some old buildings that are very beautiful and colorful eyes. As well as cities in Europe, Colmar also have some old church buildings that become an arena tour for tourists. #france

I think that 3 weeks might be a little soon. The biggest thing that you are going to notice is a lack of energy. If you run too soon and use your energy for that your body isn't going to have the energy you need to heal. I had an surgery for endomitrosis and it took a solid 6 weeks before I could run. Maybe you'll recover faster, but 3 weeks seems too fast. Good Luck
