Aircraft Controller

As an Aircraft Controller, you’ll be the critical link between the aircraft and its base, whether that’s a ship at sea or Royal Naval Air Station on land. You’re involved in the mission at every stage, from getting the aircraft safely off the deck or runway, then co-ordinating its movements before bringing it safely in to land. There may be times when aircraft are flying into combat zones, get caught by bad weather, or experience some kind of emergency. There’ll also be the satisfaction of knowing you’re keeping the Royal Navy flying.
