I'll bet that there are ATC personnel leaning back in their chairs thinking "damn, imagine having to learn what every part of an engine does and how to fix it... that's a shit load to know", or the same for, say, being a doctor, scientist, accountant, etc.



TC, how'd it go?
Waiting for a response still.. I guess they want to make the best of their 3-4 weeks.

On another note... just finished my Cathay pacific interview here in Hong Kong yesterday.... even though there were only 5 people there, I somehow managed to meet another Revscene member. Small world.
