A query re the VSL.
I can see that the system 'knows' what FL/altitude the aircraft are maintaining but how is 'cleared level' information validated to the system?
Who 'tells' the system what the cleared FL is?( And how?)
F'instance, in the screenshot above the EIN152 is cleared FL110 and is passing FL119 descending but the system still shows FL110 in the hold as vacant whereas I would consider it as being imminently occupied.
I assume that there needs to be some operator input somewhere but am just curious as to how this occurs.
Cheers
