Congratulations!

To the love of my life, my wonderful, loving husband, Stephen!!

After nearly three years of training, moving to another state, and countless stressful days; Stephen is now a Certified Professional Controller.

Facts about becoming an Air Traffic Controller:

a) 40% of all people who start the training program never finish.

b) Training can take anywhere from 2 years to 10+ years.

c) Paid training!

d) Training is relentless; trainees endure years of tests just to learn they didn't pass.

e) Once you finally pass all of your tests you are considered a "greenie" for the next 5 years!

We are so excited here at the Barnes home to finally be done with one part of our journey. Stephen has worked long and hard and I know he will be amazing at his job!
