Hello from Afghanistan!

ATC_FF Newcomer Kandahar, Afghanistan

I retired from the Air Force after 20 years and 17 days and am now working for Midwest ATC. I have been here since November and have enjoyed it so far!

For those that are thinking about flaming Midwest please don't... My mom always said that if you did not have anything nice to say then don't say anything!

Are there any other radar contracts overseas?

how much do they pay you?

What up TB? Sounds like things are going well for you in TX... Add me on Myspace; you can find my profile on CM or YO's profile!

As far as how much I make, I signed a disclosure agreement and am not allowed to talk about it. I can tell you that I am well compensated and when pay day comes I have a big smile on my face!

If anyone has any questions about working over here let me know... As long as it is not about how much I make or anything classified I can talk about it!

Hey ATCFF - are you still in Afghanistan? I recently received an offer from Midwest for either Kandahar or Kabul. I would prefer Kabul, but wanted to get your opinion on Kandahar. Thanks!

I have some friends in Bahgram and Kabul...it's worth it from what I hear. Don't think its a "cakewalk" and they're just gonna pay you to show up, though. Some over there have learned that lesson the hard way. Kabul will kick your ass for a while until you get used to it from what I hear, anyways.
