I will ask the duty manager but it will incur a delay to your flight

Matt G, your AA is probably turned up too far, try it 4xS or 4x4 mate.

yeah, you get trained and stuff. thats the purpose of mentors. you'll have someone to guide you through it. you're expected to read up on basic stuff for your part 1 OBS>STU exam (its a theory test, /20, you need 17 or more to pass). then after you've passed your theory, you'll be assigned with a mentor (or a few, it varies) and they'll go online with you as you start off on a ground position. then you'll have a practical exam on a certain position (usually tower) and you'll be assessed on your ability. if the examiners and rtsm think you're good enough, you'll be validated and become an S1

sorry that was a large chunk of text haha, but if you need any help feel free to PM me, i've been an stansted/luton tower controller for a year and a bit, and i've had 4 or 5 sessions on heathrow tower as well.
