I’m in the “seriously contemplating FAA retirement” mode. A company (WCG) is offering me an instructional position with them to train new air traffic controllers. The pay is good, the job is rewarding, and the stress free work is intriguing. I would most likely be done with the FAA August 31 and be working for WCG September 1. My office is still at Burbank Tower with occasional trips to Los Angeles where they are building a Air Traffic Control Tower Simulator. I will help develop simulations for several towers (included other towers I’ve work--LAX and Santa Monica) including Burbank. No final decision, but I’m putting the paperwork in to get the ball rolling. Hours are flexible, fellow instructors are retired friends, and more opportunities can develop with this move. More to follow....
UPDATE: The decision is made, retirement will be July 31. Life is good. A review of the career to come.
