    Air Traffic Control Officer

    I came across that multiple times in my searches, but that's an opinion piece written by an EWS student. It mentions a few facets of the training but it focuses more on long term career progression, not initial training and qualifications. And it was written in 2008. Not sure if that info is...

    Air Traffic Control Officer

    Hey guys, Just completed the 15 mile hike and got our MOS's here at TBS and I got Air Traffic Control. I'm pretty excited for the job and I'm very glad I got it. I had some questions for you guys though. I can't find any of this information online (and trust me, I've been looking). How long...

    OCS Name Stencil Font?

    You're going to be disappointed when you show up with all of these pretty name tapes and they're the wrong font, and even if they're right they'll make you throw them all away beforehand anyways.

    Red/Green Color Deficiency

    I appreciate the advice gentlemen. I don't want any of you to think I'm trying to game the game because I'm not that person. The reason I ask is because I read that glasses are acceptable for wear while flying, so I didn't know if they would accept glasses to correct color vision instead of...

    Red/Green Color Deficiency

    Apparently there are contact lenses created to help fix color deficiencies and has a 100% pass rate for the Ishahara plate tests. Are you allowed to wear contacts to a flight physical? Will they accept these contacts or even glasses used to correct color deficiency in order to pass the color...
