Very glad you posted this one. We are trialing Flight Explorer (a US Based System) in our Ops Control at present and finding it very useful operationally. Although we can watch aircraft in the hold at ORD and LAX, in fact all over the US, we are limited to the UK and near Continent on this side of the Atlantic. Even still it's useful.
The big question is, 'When we will see the rest of Europe availabe on an Aircaft Situation Display system? Seems the German are vetoing any release of the ASD data for airline use let alone public consumption, even EuroControl is restricted in its use. Considering we are paying for ATS in our charges seems strange they should veto it release, it's a by product of ATC.
I'm pleased NATS are taking this step. We'll watch with interest.
Anyone else using a similiar system at present?
