seems like it would have been a lot easier to go into the airforce. they are always hurting for controllers.....it was easy peasy for me. make it through a short basic, a short techschool, and bam, you are in a facility training...relatively hassle free. i think i must have just been lucky with my experience controlling in the af. however, this process with the faa seems to be worse than a colonoscopy! (not that i have had one, but i can imagine) i'm taking my atsat next friday, and i have nothing but time, so i am good with the wait. my advice is to just enjoy the ride. no point in getting in a rush. life is what you make of it.
