Swanwick AC will have fully electronic strips once iFACTS is introduced. The HMI has been subject to a lot of work to make it simple, quick and as idiot proff as possible to use.
Swanwick TC will go electronic when EFD (Electronic Flight Data) is introduced sometime in the future, no definite date yet as the project has only just kicked off. R&D work has been ongoing on the Multi Sector Planner (MSP) role for quite some time now but its still a long way off getting to a project stage.
AC and TC will combine onto a single system at some time in the future, possibly around 2016 but could be later, 2018.
Interstingly Swanwick Military are already fully electronic and have been since moving to Swanwick in 2002.
