Out of all the possible jobs in Aviation, isn’t being the air traffic controller, the most difficult and nervous job?
Afterall they are responsible for all those lives in each boeing 747 that lands?
What do you think?
Perhaps these new air marshals wilkl have a more difficult job?

“You aren’t an air traffic controller on duty, are you?”
Nahh, most of the heavy drinkers are pilots… 🙂

Tahnks for that very philosophical reply deano.
But I suppose the air traffic cotroller is under more stress perhaps as he does have more lives on his hands.

who are we to judge what the hardest and most stressfull job is? what depicts a stressfull job?, the diversity of the human race depicts that what one person finds stressfull the other does not, is trying to get a 396 tonne 747 on the ground stressfull? is it? it could be, one captain may find this quite stressfull yet the other takes it in his stride, I absolutely know what you are trying to ask but I just dont think there is a simple answer, with the right training I dont think any job is/should be stressfull, its when the chips are down and its going **** up, thats when the real stress starts.
