Air Traffic Controller - A Career In Aviation

A career as an air traffic controller is all about ensuring the safe movement of aircraft.
It’s an exciting role in the aviation industry but it requires people with certain skills and knowledge. These include concentration skills, attention to detail, good judgement and decision making, ability to accept criticism and work well under pressure, complex problem-solving skills and being able to think clearly and logically.
Most important of all, excellent communication skills.
This film features Air Traffic Controller, Dayle Russell, who works at St Helena Airport in the South Atlantic and Kruger Mpumalanga International in South Africa.
Dayle tells us about the challenges and rewards that come with her job, and allows our cameras into the control tower at St Helena Airport to observe the weekly flight operations for the Airlink E90 aircraft.
