It was of course the SACTA one I was referring to, as mentioned by Mineasapint. It is already a fully functioning FDP system, with the ability to send PAC, MAC, and REV messages over OLDI. Something our current UK wide system can't.

Alas, I suspect the empire builders in NATS will be trying to dumb it down since NATS could never possibly buy something out of the box without tampering with it and taking useful functionality out

Time for NAS to realise its time is up and its life is limited. The engineers and support teams have done a great job of keeping it going over the years, but in comparison to modern day systems and what they can do, it looks very cumbersome and lacking in user friendly functionality.
