Air Traffic Control
Air Traffic Controllers are people who operate the air traffic control system to expedite and maintain a safe and orderly flow of air traffic and help prevent midair collisions. They apply separation rules to keep each aircraft apart from others in their area of responsibility and move all aircraft efficiently through 'their' airspace and on to the next. Because controllers have a demonstrably large responsibility while on duty, the ATC profession is often regarded as one of the most difficult jobs today.
