Congrats, Tchocky!

Out of curiosity: Did you ever play "I am an Air Traffic Controller"?
Not exactly a hardcore-sim, but you certainly need the ability to multitask and to execute the right decisions under pressure. (I think I killed more people in this game than in Silent Hunter )

You guys can have all the laughs, but I am the one who lives only some 90km from Tchocky's place of work, my apartment is also on the upper floor... *cautiously looks up to the sky*

Reviving this to say thanks to everybody, I haven't been online for a bit.

That's some fairly solid advice

Why you little.....

@Penguin - I've never played that, no. It looks interesting! I'm not in tower or approach control, mind you. I work in an enroute centre, so everything is FL245+. Wouldn't know where to begin in a tower

"Oh, is that what they look like?"

It's never too early to start preparing for your next job.

Congratulations!
