Yes, I can tell you a little bit about what we do. We're responsible for the safe, orderly, expeditious flow of air traffic. We're stationed in air control centres and control towers. We monitor aircraft position, speed and altitude in their assigned airspace, visually and by radar. We give directions to pilots by radio. The position of an air traffic controller is one that requires highly specialized knowledge, skills and abilities. We have to apply separation rules to keep aircraft at safe distance from each other and in their area of responsibility. We move all aircraft safely and efficiently through their assigned sector of airspace, as well as on the ground. We have a large responsibility while on duty, and we make countless real-time decisions on a daily basis. I think that this is the big one. We're constantly regarded around the world as being in one of the most mentally challenging careers, and it's one that has notoriously high stress.
