In an ideal world, the software gurus who implement flight-planning systems would actually speak and listen to : (in no particular order )
a) CFMU,
b) flight-deck,
c) ATC & Ops staff
and design said systems that give flight-deck ACCURATE CFPs that resemble real world info with regard to ATC restrictions and fuel burn.
Surely in this day and age it wouldn't be an impossibility ?!
