Moves are afoot in Australia to throw away all the lines on the map and let everybody fly whichever way they want to, wherever they want to. Our managers have deluded themselves that our ATC system can handle this, but the prospect gives me the willies. Anybody else brought this in yet? I believe there is a trial of such a concept in Alaska. What sort of automated confliction alerting is used to organise such a mess?
