What are the exceptions to get a waiver for the 30 year old age requirement to apply? I’m currently 44 years old and have been a professional corporate airplane pilot since 2000. I’ve always had an interest in becoming an FAA controller and was wondering if my years of real world aviation experience as a professional pilot would allow me to be eligible to start training to become an ATC controller even though I’m older than 30 years of age. Can someone please give me some information regarding the possibility of becoming a controller at my age? Any relevant info would be greatly appreciated!
There very well could be acceptions to the age limit considering your experience. My suggestion is to approach a control tower at maybe a small airport and speaking with the ATM (Air Traffic Manager) as they have insight on hiring processes and have likely seen your situation playout under a hiring a process.
