I'm sure at some point someone has managed to complete training while working on the side, but I couldn't imagine doing that.

Re: Your application questions answered - IFR VFR FSS

Thank you very much for this information. Very useful. I'm very interested in applying and researching daily about the job. I'm lucky enough to know 2 ATC's in my area.
