- Most of the NATS-related action in Skies Above Britain takes place in London Terminal Control at Swanwick Centre.
It’s the operation that manages the very busy skies over London and the traffic in and out of the five major London airports.
But what’s it really like shouldering so much responsibility? One of the first things most people ask is whether air traffic control is a stressful job, so it’s a question we put to Brian and Steve. - Věda a technologie

That last bit rang home. Father, a controller of 30+ years, always said the job is only stressful if you dont know what you are doing.
I'm 23 and now I've become an ATC. It maybe stressful but it's fun at the same time, cuz. It's like we play a game but make sure ur game won't go *game over*
😂 u make my day
BTW can u tell me !
Is it really that hard job?
@@fh-id7jh yeah, it's hard cuz we have remember everything about the airport especially REGULATIONS. Plus make sure no mistake occure during duty cuz those little mistakes might be dangerous to pilots and passengers on board, the whole aircraft. It's kinda stress when it's high season. Think a lot and a lot.

Yes it is. They look all stressed
The job isn't necessarily stressful, but working for the FAA is a whole other story!!! Run and save urselves!
Dave Smith pleaseee explain
@@abcdefg3265 !
So many bald patches
It's not stressful having a sector at capacity while dealing with international pilots that english maybe be a second or third language? I'd say you get used to it but, still quite stressful.
My names ridwan .
I am 15 years old . i love this job,and it's my future .
Go for it, Ridwan!
Go for it boy! It's my dream job too, now I am air traffic controller 😊
@callum Cook u wanna be ATC ? There are 3 sections: aerodrome controller, approach controller and area controller. And I am an aerodrome controller which manage all the aircraft within aerodrome 10NM
@callum Cook u have a lot of time to prepare for that cuz being an ATC at least you're 21 years. First of all u have to know how they recruit people, for example in my country the company which provides air traffic services recruits non-professional people after we takes a few tests and if we capable enough they will send us to CATC ( it's an aviation school ) after that we takes a few more tests again. ( Skills knowledge medical and English proficiency )
@@sreynethsat673, did you train under NATS or another
Thinking about this, already got a stressful job... mi us we’ll get paid for the work I put in
I cannot wait till I'm 18 so i can apply.
Good luck man. Lots of my family are or have been air traffic controllers and I wanna become one too but I don't know if I can do it :/
Hasnen Namaji damn same

Im currently studying a levels and I would like to be an atc, I would like some advice but the website are not responding
What did you do
Cool.
For the vast majority no.....but those who find it stressful end up in a office job or as a supervisor.
Anyone who thinks THIS is the most stressful job has clearly never been a journalist in dictatorships like Russia, Saudi Arabia, and China.
SeanTheOriginal Don’t forget UK and USA and Europe!
I would say neurosurgeon beats the lot

Well said
Yes he well said about temperature and noise. It is quiet and when temperature raising than is noise. Wonderful understanding for his difficut job . He is risking a lot, a crash with a plane , he is risking if he is not careful.
Yes it's.
Can you be an atc if you have minus eyes?
Yes. We'll at least in the U.S., eye sight and hearing can be corrected with glasses or hearing aids.
I have a friend in Mexico and he is an Air Traffic Controller
Stressful Job in the world

Sevheart hiya ive just applied as well did you do your online test yet?
naniv yey that's so exciting good luck!!and nope , I'm not as confident as I was before lol it's says on their website that only 15 out of 3300 people get it lol
Sevheart im feeling a little nervous too about even starting it. I did my application now i have to do an online test. Everything in my body is saying i cant do it or i wont pass it...but for some reason im attracted to this role...and i think you shouldnt let that 15 out of how many ever put you off...simply put all you have to do is dedicate all your attention towards it and you can be one of those 15 :) ...you posted thst comment 2 weeks ago. What did you do/ how far did you get?
