True, at least someone is trying to stay on track.
In Dublin the hourly capacity on rwy 10/28 is about 44 per hour in 2006- 2008 we were regularly shifting 51/52 per hour so if capacity has dropped 25% from then then I reckon at 40 movements we are operating at 90% or more of our main runways published safe capacity.
Anyway thats nit picking

It doesn't matter what the traffic levels are, everyone knows that there were only 2 aircraft in the sector at Uberlingen and look at the tragedy there.
The fact that new technology was a factor in this should never be overlooked cos it's not always a good thing.
