Thanks for info -

Amazing, Lu, until I read your post, I didn't know the ATC system was so well coordinated. At least we know it works.

The program also showed some critical links. In Alaska, the 'bush' villages were badly crippled in the aftermath, having practically no roads or water transportation. No doubt, Alaska will now have to set up a means of dealing with such in the future.

I Imagine Canada had similar problems.

For all the pre-existing protests, I wonder if the FAA's Ms. Garvey will now believe there is an airport security problem. She was quite well informed from private citizens through Congressional reports.

Allowing the obvious to happen cannot be separated from making it happen.
