FAST

In the 1990s in the U. S., a system was tested at KDFW called Final Approach Sequencing Tool (FAST). Controller acceptance was low due to difficulties in seeing the displayed data and unreliability in certain weather conditions.

A newer system, p (passive) FAST, was devised to be more advisory in nature and is currently in use at KDFW and Southern California (SoCal) TRACON.
