Visiting the Air Traffic Control Tower

I went with the BCS today and joined them for a tour of the new Air Traffic Control Tower in Ronaldsway. It was a pretty good tour and I have some photos I’ll be uploading to my main blog if I’m still awake in a few minutes

It was interesting to get some insight into someone else’s work day. It’s easy to get dragged into the mire that is your every day life and sometimes seeing something different can give you perspective. It’s also good to see what other jobs are out there, airline jobs, construction jobs or even flying an aeroplane. It’s just that these sort of jobs are so far from where I am, that sometimes you don’t even consider them as options for other people.

I wonder what the kids will grow up to be when they grow up …
